Like finding a nice young guy who can cook for him?

D'aawww, these kids are so incredible!

I wish you a migraine-free week ahead.

Hey, Dugh and Mum! Glad to hear that you're doing well. I look forward to some kilting stories.

@raven1 Hey, Terry!

Mine recently had a growth spurt, and we had to get new shoes for him, but fortunately he hasn't started puberty yet. We're still a couple of years away from that.

We had taco grilled cheese sandwiches.

Mine does both. Before my old 3G phone went out of service, Max called it my "vintage paperweight". Also, he doesn't accept help easily, and can be surprisingly stubborn about the little things.

He really is.

Lately, I've been having to go into my son, Max's room to retrieve my phone, because he often borrows it before bed time and then falls asleep with it. I wondered what he could be doing with it each night, so I checked the browser history. Nothing appeared amiss, so I then checked the call log. A call made each night to the same number, which belongs to the family of his bestie, Michael, for over an hour. I barely use the phone myself, except for arranging schedules and appointments, so the service bill can withstand a little stretching. When I asked Max why he keeps calling Michael each night, Max admitted that Michael sometimes struggles with night terrors. And so, Max has taken to calling him before bed, and they talk over the phone until Michael falls asleep. Apparently, it helps Michael calm whatever part of his brain that triggers the night terrors, so he can sleep easy. Honestly, I don't know what I did to deserve such a compassionate kid.

Good night, B. I made some sweet tea, but the weather is a bit chilly today. Soon, 'twill be time for cider, cocoa, or Masala chai.

Now I want details.

Hey, Tea Bat!

I'll take "Excercises in Redundancy" for $200, Ken.

Aaawwww! This family just gets cuter and cuter with each new song!

Sorry, buddy. I couldn't resist.

Hey, Dan! *waves*

Yep, things are good here. Lately, I've been having to go into Max's room to retrieve my phone, because he often borrows it before bed time and then falls asleep with it. I wondered what he could be doing with it each night, so I checked the (deep) browser history. Nothing appeared amiss, so I then checked the call log.

Yum! I love mixed grain bread for snacking, but homemade white bread is great for sandwiches. 😋

I don't know why it wouldn't make its way over to you guys....eventually. Oh, and here's the trailer for Wonder, if you haven't seen it. I laughed so hard at the last line Jacob Tremblay spoke. 😂

Doing well, thanks. Just finished reading a brilliant book.

Because it makes your claim of bullying look weak.

I just finished reading "White Bird" by R.J. Palacio. In the new movie adaptation, Bryce Gheisar reprises his role as Julian, who was responsible for bullying Auggie in the prequel story, "Wonder".
