You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

He’s at that age where he repeats everything you say.
My advice is not to say, “Fucking Dishwasher!” in front of him. Doesn’t matter how many times you try to reprogram those two words into something else, he will just keep repeating them back at you just to watch you squirm.

I’m watching Jeremiah for the week while Lisa is on vacation. My goal is to make sure she spends the next 4 weeks trying to erase all my bad influences on him.

So far; “Auntie is the best!” “I am SOOOO cool.” “UNCALLED FOR!” “Niner’s Suck!” and “You’re killing me, Homes!”

He’s totally cute when he says, “What’s up, Homeslice?”

Any suggestions?
