Me: (As chess pieces are moved wildly around the board in an un-chess-like manner) What are you playing?
Lil_MisterIQ: Calvin Chess
Tiggerific: The only rule is not to say, “That’s against the rules.”
I apparently live in a comic!

A cute thought for the summer:
Recently, in a large French city, a poster featuring a young, thin and tan woman appeared in the window of a gym. It said: ¨THIS SUMMER DO YOU WANT TO BE A MERMAID OR A WHALE?¨
A middle aged woman, whose physical characteristics did not match those of the woman on the poster, responded publicly to the question posed by the gym.
To Whom It May Concern:
Whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, sea lions, curious humans). They have an active sex life, they get pregnant and have adorable baby whales. They have a wonderful time with dolphins stuffing themselves with shrimp. They play and swim in the seas, seeing wonderful places like Patagonia, the Bering Sea and the coral reefs of Polynesia. Whales are wonderful singers and have even recorded CDs. They are incredible creatures and virtually have no predators other than humans. They are loved, protected and admired by almost everyone in the world.Mermaids don’t exist. If they did exist, they would be lining up outside the offices of psychoanalysts due to an identity crisis. Fish or human? They don’t have a sex life because they kill men who get close to them not to mention how could they have sex? Just look at them…..where is IT? Therefore, they don’t have kids either. Not to mention who wants to get close to a girl who smells like a fish store?
The choice is perfectly clear to me; I want to be a whale.
Me too (although it pains my poor body image to say so! 
)

I knew it was coming. I’m just thankful that it’s only two small bones in his foot!

Kirby and I love Ikea. When we lived in Ottawa, we used to go to the Ikea store on date night – have a great Scandinaavian meal, dream big dreams while we walked around the floors, and just enjoy one another’s company.
Ikea thinks any space can be beautiful.
We took up the challenge. You can see our pre-beautiful kitchen here. If you think it could do with some work, consider giving us your vote.
If you’re Canadian and think you have a space that needs work consider adding it!
Now I’m off to make Doviegirl and LittlestOne’s room beautiful. (I’ll post a reveal for that some time soon.)
NOTE: Click on the link for our kitchen, skip the intro and then wait! The flash will eventually load our kitchen.)

A little while back Rosetta Stone asked for name ideas for their new home school newsletter and they picked mine: Stepping Stones.
In addition to the French Language program which we already use, we earned the complete Spanish program!
Thank-you Rosetta Stone.
