My 4yo pretended she was a hired cleaner yesterday as. As she helped me clean she asked if I had any kids. After telling her about my 2 I asked if she had any of her own. Turns out she has 5 kids and has been married to a man named Carlin for 30 years. You think you know someone.
8yo sees me chopping up some celery:
Can I have some?
Me: Sure!
8yo: *chewing*
Me: *watches hopefully*
8yo: That celery really brought my mood down.
Me: Yeah……Yeah it will do that.
If you’re interested in a conversation with someone who starts telling a story, proceeds to forget the words for most things, places and people then I’m your girl.

4 to 8 PM is the elite hangout window. (Full disclosure: I’ve been calculating my escape route since 7)

I’d like to thank my brain for always choosing the scenic route between “thoughts” and “words.”

A crispy 6 degree first Fall morning.
My daughter and I are cackling with glee.
It is both lovely and scary to have given birth to your own twin.

The kids went back to school today.
The only sound in the house was the soft hum of the refrigerator.
Nature is healing.

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.
Two weeks until the kids go back to school and we’re officially running out of snacks, patience, and places to hide.
Is it OK I explained to my 11 yo that if any of his eight cherry shrimp get sucked into the aquarium filter despite the safety sponge, it would be called “natural selection?”
