May today be FANTASTIC!

You clearly need a loud noise-maker to get their attention! Then they'll quiet down (yeah, right 🤣) and be able to hear your whisper!
Ohhhhh! You need a megaphone 📣

I bought a tea towel last year b/c it is identical to the Christmas napkins my Gram would put out each year 💜

At one point my kids had a 5-key "piano" for bebes. Not even a full octave!
But then I scored one of those xylophones from the 80s with the wheels and a pull cord 🙌🏽

100% was expecting some sort of musical rant, as my brain assumed other "keyboard"...rolled w/the iMac part b/c what I know? Maybe you can plug them into computers nowadays? And then my brain record-scratched at ten-key 🤣

I am deliriously proud of him - he's my quietest, most reserved kid and he talked to so many people and at a Lions Club meeting and I am so dang proud of him!

He also earned $180 in Scout Bucks which can only be spent at the Scouting America stores (uniforms, gear, etc) AND a $450 gift card to 1 of 10 stores AND an invite to a party w/the Stockton Kings (NBA G-League team) - the team party was his goal...
AND HE DID IT!!

(I'm in denial)

Fake news! 🤪

You & me >>> same wavelength

If it's for all three kids, I go as neutral as possible. 14yo son has much different tastes than 11yo & 8yo daughters 😅

A spot for each of their brushes AND for toothpaste!

I tried to convince myself that they looked good...but just couldn't get there.
Why are we trying to look like we have rickets?!

There are definitely styles that won't work for me (5'11", 35" inseam)...but I keep trying to imagine them on a bunch of different bodies...and I'm not seeing it 🤷‍♀️
