Day 4325

 Know when to fold ‘em.

Day 4324

 When even the adults walked their little legs off…

Day 4323

 Walk 10k to drop a letter in the box just around the corner and you might see some things.

Day 4322

 You let the children watch some Olympics and all of a sudden they’re disqualifying each other from games…

Day 4321

 Do not recommend spare tire adventures on vacation.

Day 4320

Why not expose everyone to geocaching and see what happens?

Day 4319

 And soon we will find out how bad an idea it was to introduce our maniacs to geocaching…

Day 4318

 Seems like a good idea to work on your travel bucket list before the places are on fire or underwater…

Day 4317

She’s the same smart as she was when she was four. Still as precocious as ever.

Day 4316

 Four cousins get fancy dresses and you get an impromptu flashlight-lit ballet performance with surprise toddlers and a battle scene…

Day 4315

 Have you considered more adventure?

Day 4314

 ADVENTURE!!!!

Day 4313

 I hope this doesn’t awaken something in me…

Day 4312

 Due to excessive morning piano, I seem to have developed an uncomfortable habit of gardening during the hottest parts of the day.

Day 4311

 Nothing exploded, there’s a big old plane flying around outside!

Day 4310

 Our dog is not cut out for adventure.

Day 4309

Foiled by frozen bananas… again.

Day 4308

Why can’t we just have two parallel societies going for AM and PM people so everyone can follow a comfortable schedule? We’ll meet for lunch or dinner and everyone can be happy.

Day 4307

 Sometimes we even see people.

Day 4306

Has anyone studied library hold math yet? I need someone with the math.

Day 4305

 I know I said dark clothes will make you hotter, but the label on the inside of your dress is fine and the colour of your pajamas under the covers doesn’t matter.

Day 4304

 Who knew War (the card game) could be so dramatic?!

Day 4303

 ADHD does not mix kindly with yard work on hot days.

Day 4302

 Maybe don’t name your children after strong-willed determined people.

Day 4301

 Do I get a prize for being less cooked than the children after going for a walk on a hot day?

Full disclosure: they also played on a playground in the sun while I mostly sat in dappled shade.

Day 4300

 VULTURES!!!

Day 4299

 All together again.

Day 4298

 It’s just rude when the kids are at sensitive to my poor choices and wake me up a zillion times through the night…

Day 4297

 On the one hand, dragging them out for a walk improved everyone’s mood. On the other hand, what on earth was I thinking putting an unsteerable stroller in the hands of a determined four year old?!?!

Day 4296

 If one bike ride doesn’t kill you, why not go for one that is one and a half times as long?

Day 4295

 Frankly Banana, I wouldn’t feel ready to sleep either when it sounded like the sky just cracked open.
