Year 5, Day 364

On our way out the door this morning, Miles snagged two bags of Pirate's Booty. Almost as though he sensed what I was going to say, he quickly interjected, "One's for me and one's for you, Daddy." Oh, okay then. When we got to the car, he only had one bag in his hand. The … Continue reading Year 5, Day 364 →

Year 5, Day 321

We had just left the house this morning when Miles said, as calmly as could be, "Daddy, I'm really mad at Mommy." "Why are you mad at Mommy?" I asked. "Because she forgot to give me a snack." Truly a cardinal offense. "Well you can tell her when she comes to your fashion show this … Continue reading Year 5, Day 321 →

Year 5, Day 222

Miles was really excited to let me know he had personally packed a special surprise in my lunch bag. I've gotta hand it to him -- he may have a lot of learning to do about appropriate behavior, but he's always willing to share even his most coveted snack treats.

Year 5, Day 202

On a recent trip to Costco, we agreed to let Miles pick out a snack of his choice -- something he could have on-hand that was quick and easy for car travel, such as our morning commute, or as an afterschool treat. He chose a massive box of Entenmann's Little Bites mini-muffins, and he's been … Continue reading Year 5, Day 202 →

Year 5, Day 163

Miles and I killed a couple hours at the Charlotte Comicon today while we waited for Jaclyn to return from her retreat, and while I was there to rummage through some long boxes, Miles quickly demonstrated that he was only interested in two things. First, acquiring a balloon sword. Why oh why did I give … Continue reading Year 5, Day 163 →
