I've decided to start video blogging. You all have to see what I see from a dad's perspective. Yesterday was a cool and rainy Sunday. A perfect day to relax, snooze, or work on projects which need to be wrapped up (what i do every weekend it seems like). The older two girls were in need of a nap after lunch so I asked them politely to "go get under their sheets and take a nap." God Love them. Note to self: Children at this age do not know the difference between a general or literal statement. They are probably too young for the "if your friends jumped off a bridge" talk. Anyway I'll let the video speak for itself. Hope you enjoy...

Honey
Sorry for not blogging lately... it's been crazy getting settled into the new job (which is awesome) and getting taxes done. I'll get back on track and post more on a regular basis with my point of view from TDR.
This morning it was unusually cold. A strong storm moved through on Sunday and the temperature dropped from mid 70's to mid 40's. Night time temperatures dipped to below freezing. This morning it was a cold 29 degrees with a heavy frost that clung to everything like a bad haircut. I started the car so it would be warm for the girls on the way to school.
We pile into the car and head out singing along with the CD in the player. As we stopped at a stoplight, Chloe, now talking like a perfect little chatter box, looked over at the empty field and said "Where are all of the cows, Daddy?"
Before I could give her an answer, Emma put her hand on Chloe's arm and said "Honey, they are in the barn sitting on their eggs to keep them warm" and then turned away to look at the traffic light and wait to continue on our way to school.
I'm not sure which was funnier - the fact that Emma talks like she's my age, or that she thinks that cows lay eggs. Perhaps it's a combination that makes it so cute.
Much love, my girls...
