I've got sunshine, in the month of February

I keep waiting for the day when I'll stop feeling bad about not being able to do everything that's expected of me.

Still waiting.


In the meantime, one particular gentleman has discovered just the button to push to eliminate the possibility of a grumpy mom.  It looks something like this.

Can you look at that face and be grumpy?  I didn't think so.

Neither, apparently, can Sir O.

1 week until Mr Renn's first real job interview.  Are we ready to start behaving like real grown-ups?  I don't think many people in our generation are - I think that whole "self-esteem" movement backfired that way; inducing a pandemic of peter-pan-syndrome.  Chances are we all know at least one someone who's fallen victim to it.  My bishop reminded me recently of how lucky I am to have a husband who is perfectly willing to work to provide for his family.  Sometimes I am dense; it's a human condition and part of the nature of the natural man.  We forget things.  Important things.  All the time.


Luckily there are smiling babies around to help us remember.

Yes, that boy is a medicinal cure for grumpiness. I love having a little one to cure my grumpy moments. Wish I could bottle it up so I wouldn't want 5 more babies. :)

Wow, what a sweet little guy! I think he may just have an old soul behind those sweet looks. Good luck to Renn! Keep us posted on what happens.
