The internet is a very serious instrument of education and information...

Some of you may think that I spend all my time posting pictures of my kids and checking out my friends' blogs. But that's only about 98% true. The rest of my valuable internet time is spent in the serious pursuit of learning and edification. Take a look here at one of my proudest achievements.

No wonder Al Gore is so proud of inventing the internet! And yes, The Mighty Mrs. J does really sound like that. Except her actual voice isn't quite as low and mellifluous...

Froggy is WAY too permissive...


This is DisneyGirl. She is a great kid. She's funny, charming, smart, and imaginative. She also has a knack for finding a way to be completely charming and totally crazy-making at the very same time.

Yesterday, she came into my office during her nap time. She had a small plastic frog in one hand, and a handful of crackers in the other. The crackers were disintegrating in her hand, and she had a trail of crackers all through the house. I asked her why she had gotten up during her nap. Her reply? "Froggy said I could get crackers. He said it was OK." Well, who am I to argue with a 2" plastic frog? I did have to warn Froggy that next time, he needed to ask me before he let DisneyGirl get crackers during nap time.

DisneyGirl has a great imagination. It's one of the great things about her. I wonder how she'll put that to use as she grows up...

Here's another great DisneyGirl story, see the Mighty Mrs. J's blog: http://homeschoolreflections.blogspot.com/2007/02/wormie.html
