Didn’t we all hate middle school?
Liam asked me tonight if I had any pictures of me as a kid he could see. I showed him a few I had scanned in, then realized I could just as easily find myself in my old junior high...

I always think that this blog just isn’t being used anymore and then every once in a great while, when I want to make a post out of the blue, I see that Jesse DOES actually post here. Which makes...
Barefoot Children
Today was my morning to get Liam ready for school. He came in and woke us up before the alarm went off (which almost never happens) and was well before there was any hint of daylight. This left us with...
Springtime means park time
