My Compliments to the Chef

You know last night's dinner was good when Taylor says, "Mom, can we have leftovers for dinner tonight?"

They Come in Threes

Mom, there are three Rachels: Rachel Palmer (neighbor), Rachel Rice (piano teacher), and Rachael Ray!

-Nathan's random comment during dinner tonight.

Confession

I was washing dishes, and my back was to Nathan when he approached.

I heard his sheepish little voice say, "Mom, I didn't think about it before I did it..."

Imagine all the destruction I thought I was about to see! This was not too long after his little sister had ruined the Halloween costume I'd been painstakingly making for her. And she had wet her pants all over the boys' piano lesson books. My day was not going well.

What relief I felt when he was standing there with an open umbrella he couldn't close! (Isn't he cute!?!)
