Captions?
#1: I made myself a little snack last night...Some suggestions for the caption:
Everyone else had two!
Thank goodness for LactAid!
#2: Found this little-big guy on our sidewalk, still alive and wriggling, but unable to move (Aaron flipped him upright and he was gone in a flash)...
Some suggestions:
Everyone needs a little help sometimes!
Don't leave me here!
Jane Austen is NOT a nice neighbor!

Talk To Me
I blog for myself and my kids and I would do it even if no one else cared, but I do like to hear from you (and think it's a wee bit creepy of you to voyeurize us without my knowing it). So, please leave a comment from time to time, or email me anytime at xawilsons@hotmail.com. Much obliged, I'm sure.
Stalkers, Caught Red-Handed!
