I loved watching Koko and Yavor interact with the kids last year. But nothing compares to the zany antics of the girls! My kitchen floor was covered in whipped cream that I had intended to use on strawberry shortcake. Instead there was an all out...

If you're a writer - watch this video

By 7am this morning the girls were chasing my daughter Laura around the house midst much squeeling and laughter. Then we dropped them off at a local diner for breakfast. They will leave there, separate, and begin a 12 hour day of knocking on door...

QotD: Family Dynamics

2008-06-17T12:36:43Z

What's the hardest part about the role you play in your family? Being responsible to be a grown up when I feel like I'm only just figuring out who I am. I adore my husband and am amazed by my children. I just think I could have done a better jo...
