If there's a weakness I have, I suppose it would be cookie dough.
Well, that's ONE weakness anyway.
A few days ago ...
Amanda: Know what I'm in the mood for?
Me: What?
Amanda: COOKIE DOUGH.
Me: Yeah, but we don't have any chocolate chips.
Amanda: So???
Me: Good point.
So we went to the kitchen and made chocolate chip cookie dough, sans chocolate chips.
As we stood there with loaded spoons in our hands and sugar-induced grins on our faces ...
Amanda: This is shameful.
Me: Yep.

An Original Father's Day Card by Megan
Before getting to the Meg Original, you need to know some back story ...
The day prior to Father's Day, Megan swam and got a sunburn on her face. The more time passed, the more it hurt. So Henry encouraged her to apply either some aloe vera or Dermoplast to help with her discomfort. She tried the aloe vera and complained of it stinging. I was later able to talk her into using the Dermoplast which did NOT sting.
Okay, that's all you need to know.
After purchasing Father's Day cards for Henry, I figured we were good to go.
Apparently, Megan felt differently because she made the following Father's Day booklet. Each sentence below was on its own page:
Thanks for being such a great dad.
You are AWESOME!!!!
Thanks for making me breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.
You are so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so GREAT.
You made my sunburn sting, just the way I like it.
You're the BEST dad in the world.
Love, Megan

Stuffed Animal Advocate
Me: Amanda you can't possibly expect to keep ALL of those stuffed animals.
Amanda: I'm going to put them on the shelves in my closet once they're cleared off.
Me: But there are SO MANY. Do you really need to keep all of them?
Amanda: Mom, have you heard of the 'No Child Left Behind' act?
Me: Yeah.
Amanda: Well this is the 'No Stuffed Animal Left Behind' act.
Me: Nice.
