Dear So and So...Good Clean Fun Edition...

So I'm a bit early (like 4 days early) on the "Dear So and So..." post...The story of my life...I'm either too early or too late...sigh....
Dear So and So...


Join the fun brought to you by the fabulous Kat at 3 Bedroom Bungalow!

Dear Children Who Live in My House... 


Cat...While I realize that Polly Pocket and her friends love hanging out in your room with Draculaura and her pals, I don't think they enjoy being trampled on by giants...especially female giants with hormone issues. Seriously, they might end up maimed or as amputees if they're not careful.  Teen Caveboy...guitar picks are not like rose petals to be scattered across the floor in some sweet gesture of love...PICK UP YOUR STUFF, OFFSPRING or it may turn up missing...just sayin'....

With all my love,

Mommy


Dear Booty and Behind...

Just a note of thanks for finally sitting down after ruining the Tegan and Sara portion of the Paramore concert for us.  (I was standing behind you, Colossal Ginormous Dude when I took this photo...)  Booty, we were really impressed by your drunk girl dance moves.  Wow...American Bandstand would've loved you back in the day.  At least Behind had the good sense to just shift from side to side without tossing his alcoholic beverage all over the place. 

Hope to never see you at another concert..EVER...





p.s. Booty, thanks for being a shining example of what Teen Caveboy better NEVER bring home to meet Mama...

Dear Antique Baby Grand Piano...aka "Emma"...

Welcome to our home! Thanks for not going home with that creepy guy and saving yourself for Chilly.  He's been on the prowl for you for years.  I realize you need a HUGE makeover (believe me...I can relate...), but I know in time you will be restored to your greatness.  (I've got word into Oprah that I need a makeover too...I'll throw in a good word for you...)  I hope you love the name that Cat and Connor bestowed upon you.  Thank you, Chilly for giving me such a lovely and most cherished gift!  

Can't Wait to Tinkle Your Ivories...(uh...I mean Emma's keys, Chilly...don't get excited...)






Wishing you a fabulous Tuesday!  


XoXo!

I've been known to put my kids toys in big garbage bags and make them earn them back. I'm a mean mom like that!

Tinkle the ivories is definitely one of those phrases that sounds dirty but isn't (at least I don't think it is!)
Kelly said…
Congratulations on your baby grand! What an exciting purchase. I will be watching for you on Oprah.

Piano envy!!!

Oh, and a green garbage bag full of stuff that hasn't been picked up is a great way to "encourage" offspring to clean up.

Just sayin'

Tuesday's Tribute...Heartbeat..It's a Lovebeat

Yet Another Jay and Deb Production. I am paying my Tuesday's Tribute to Chilly. Today we celebrate our first Heartaversary. What is a Heartaversary, you ask? Well, settle in with a cuppa and let me weave a tale of wonder... One year ago today I was pacing the waiting room floor of University Medical Center in Tucson waiting for my husband’s surgeon to inform me if Chilly had survived his triple bypass. I’ll spare you the sordid details of how all this came about. I’ll just say that it was very fast and unexpected. The prospect of losing my spouse in my early 40’s wasn’t in my plan obviously. My plan was more of a “hanging with the kiddos, going to the Renaissance Faire, beating my son at Guitar Hero, driving my husband crazy for decades” kind of plan. But God always has a bigger plan for us. In this case, he was trying to keep Chilly on the planet for a while longer. As I have written before, Chilly has had two very challenging years. He has been a diabetic for a couple of decade
