Milk and Cookies

My munchkins were in the kitchen last night as I was sitting on the couch in the living room. I can't see the kitchen from my couch, but I could hear the microwave hum and then the refrigerator door open and close.

Then I heard the seven year old say to the nine year old, "Michael, I love you...you're the best brother...". I turned around and realized Michael had heated a homeade chocolate chip cookie (cookies that he had made the night before) and poured a glass of milk for his little bro.

It was enough to make me wonder who those kids were and what they did with mine.

I'm Back on Top

It's so quiet right now, I can hear my dogs swallowing while they sleep. Kinda gross...

Everyone is in bed early tonight except me. It's only 9:30 pm. I've spent way too much time on Facebook today. Thanks alot CDJ. Now I'm hooked. There is way too much to play with. (BTW, I've started looking at your Friends and Family list to see how far down I am. It sorts itself by how long ago your people have posted, you know. Well, if I get to far down the list, my competitive nature compels me to blog whether I have anything to say or not just to get back towards the top.)

Anyway, before I became consumed with this new time-eater-upper, I helped the 9 year old finish up his book report poster whatever thingy. It looks pretty good...like a 9 year old did it with his mom standing over him.

Well got to get back to the new hobby. It probably won't last long. Nothing for me ever does. The newness (?) always wears off and then there are just chores to do again.
