Here's some photos for you.. I try to impart this on our children whenever they complain about silly things..
Michelle continues to plug away at work and is putting in long , long hours.. I swear I'll have her update the blog for you as what she has to say will shed more light on the reality of life here.. .

After wiping their face clean of debris, they said.. "My mom says I'm sick. " I told them I agreed with their mother..
