about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote

  • "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education like, such as South Africa, and, the Iraq, everywhere like such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children."

Nine

May 31, 2007

The boys’ birthday is next week, so to celebrate, we’re taking them to Cedar Point. Again I’m reminded that a nice perk to homeschooling is the ability to go out of town in the middle of the week without the hassle of missing school. We have been to Cedar Point as a family once before when the boys were tall enough to ride the 48″ rides. This year, they’ve passed the 54″ mark and will be able to ride all the (adult) rides. I’ll be packing ginger candy to calm my stomach while “enjoying” the aforementioned rides.

I also bought them two books last week, and presented them a full two weeks before their birthday. I’m a sucker for giving them books. The first book is Pirates. I’m surprised it took me this long to get them any of the new, cool dragon/pirate/wizard books. The second book is The Dangerous Book for Boys. They’re still pretty excited about them both.

We’ve never thrown a party with their friends, and this year is no different. My parents may stop by, and my sister and her husband as well, but it’ll just be an informal sort of thing. We may go all out this year and make cupcakes.

    We love being able to go on vacation while everyone else is in school. The crowds are smaller, the lines are shorter, and things are cheaper. Both the airfare and hotels have lower rates during offseason.

    We also enjoy shopping during school hours. It’s a much more relaxed experience.

about this blog

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
