  • I was tagged by Peppermoon: 1. Total number of books I own? Uh, I can't really say, but we probably have more 'kid books' than any other single item in our house. 2. The last book I bought? I can't remember…
  • Last night, laying on the floor of the den, Buddy sang this original song: "I'm walking down the town, With a big, big crown, Shinin' like the light of a CHICK-EN." I said, "Did you just say, 'Shinin' like the light o…
