Okay....I'll admit it.

This is my confession.

Whew...this is harder than I thought.

Okay, here it comes:

I LOVE the show Dating in the Dark.

I know!! I know!!! You don't even have to tell me cause I've already scolded myself.

But I love it! I love the concept of a show that places more importance on the inner workings of a relationship than on the outward appearances of the people involved. Here is a show all about communication in relationship and compatibility of the souls. And isn't THAT what will keep you together in the long run?

On my first date with that husband of mine we had such great conversation. Not all agreement, but ALL pleasant. And based on that I knew we could make it work. Or at least talk about everything and not worry about offense, or rejection, or disrespect.

So maybe Dating in the Dark is a good idea for all first dates. Okay, maybe NOT for teenage boys with raging hormones, but for every adult who knows what they want and who are okay with who they are, right?

And we could all stand to be a little more like God and 'look at the heart, and not on the outward apperarance'.

My two oldest boys start school tomorrow. They are 3 and 4.

Does that seem a little young to you? Because they're still babies to me!

Last night we went to 'Meet the Teacher' night. I brought the whole fam so that the ladies could see what Noah and Ben are up against at home.

Please forgive their homework but Jakey ate it!!!

That is a real possibility. Jakey eats everything. Even poop, but that's another story.

When we go over to my mom's house he goes right for the dog food and stuffs his little mouth full. It makes kissing him a real act of love.

Forgive my dirty talk, you just never know where these little blogs will take me!

Have a fun day :)

Cyborg-Dad

Something very odd is happening around here. There is a sense of danger in the air.



What is it Jake? Do you see something weird?



Is it Noah doing the hula? Ben do you see 'it'?



Benny the Brave investigates further....





ACK!!! CAREFUL BEN!!! THAT THING IS FREAKY!

(I hope he has something on under that sheet :o)



Sweet boy knows they have something in common.

He's not afraid.



I am though!

Just a minute...hold the phone...Is that a BOTTLE NIPPLE and a MEDICINE CUP!?!??!?!?

What an odd man.



Uhhh...Sam what are you doing?





Oh gross.

Maybe I should have breastfed that poor deprived child after all.



Well, at least Noah is normal. And such a helpful child.
