Light and Momentary: Chuckles

10yo: Mom, do you think the van could go at the speed of light?

13yo: Catholics can never go at the speed of light. [beat] Because they have Mass.

Conversation while rearranging books: I might put the parenting books with the drama and poetry, but that's kind of weird.

Reply: Oh, I don't know -- I think parenting brings plenty of drama and poetry.

I love that joke! Catholics have Mass. Ha!

I'd say that joke counted for half the curriculum -- physics AND religion! Take the rest of the day off!

Welcome

Welcome to my blog, where I mostly natter on about my life with five kids. Occasionally (not very often, because teenagers keep a person humble) I dispense parenting advice. Occasionally I write about other things, like faith or food or my secret strategy for dealing with annoying kid behavior or whether I am fit to be a mother. Also: who is the mystery intruder? And: does stay-at-home mothering rot the brain? If you are worried about slow weight gain in a breastfed baby, this is my most-viewed post — hope it's helpful to you. Want to read more? I have some favorite posts linked here.
