I am a mother of three children: Danny (now 14), James (now 12), and Katie (now 8). After putting all the funny things they say and do into posts on my Facebook page, some of my friends suggested I start a blog. And now, I'm in my fifth year of documenting their antics.

No Book Thieves
I'm always in a rush when leaving the house to pick up the kids from school. One day, when I was cutting it particularly close, I inadvertently left without closing the door completely. Upon arriving home, Danny, who is always first to the door, noticed that it was slightly ajar. He shouted, "Hey Mom! The door is open a little bit!" I replied, "Oh, I must've not closed it all the way when I left. I was in a rush." "You know, someone could've robbed us while we were out," he chided. Continuing our conversation while entering the house, I said, "Yes, well, I was only gone 20 minutes and everything is still here." I jokingly continued, "Our lamps are still here, so are my books..." Danny interjected, "Well the robber can technically still be in the house, Mom. NOBODY wants to steal books!" (1/26/12)
