My youngest daughter drew a picture of me and my husband. We're standing hand in hand, and between our heads there's a floating balloon. I was pleasantly surprised. Obviously, we make quite a loving, and harmonious couple!
But then she said: 'That was before you had us, mummy!'
'If you participated in Style by Jury*, they would change a lot about you,' my husband suddenly declared, while spreading his sandwich with a thick layer of peanut butter. 'How's that?' 'Well, look at yourself!' Style by husband 'Perhaps my hair,' I agreed. He nodded enthusiastically. 'And different clothes!' But now his sudden interest in...
You know those songs that get stuck in your head, and no matter how hard you try to get rid of them they just won't leave you alone? I suffered from just that phenomenon, while we were heading for a visit to my parents in law. Amazing grace stuck in my head 'I keep hearing...
When we left the city to move to the country my husband and I couldn't agree on lots of things. One of them was what kind of lamps we should get. I wanted a beautiful chandelier I wanted beautiful chandeliers. My husband didn't know what he wanted. But one thing he did know: no chandeliers....
It's a wellknown fact: after Summer Vacation divorce rates go up. Apparently it can be quite stressful to have the love of your life around you all the time. It's all very well to promise: 'for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health,' but no one said anything about...

Did you know that after Summer Vacation divorce rates rise? I'm not surprised. No matter how much you love your so called better half, it can be quite challenging to be around each 24/7. Yesterday my husband started his vacation. It's been one day. And already I feel like screaming. Annoying husband Let me give...
Awww, sounds like a lovely photo. Don't be saddened by her comment, martial relationships change as children come along. The love is strong, dutiful and romantic but not as young love. I believe children know can see love and know it, in all its forms :0)

At least the two of you are still the topics of her artwork. Not only that, but when she thinks of you, the fist image which comes to mind is a pleasant one. Whenever my wife and I go out for an evening (ummm...right in 2009), we are very straightforward about telling the kids we need some time not being parents. A popcorn and a movie seems to cure them of heartsickness pretty quickly:)
Thanks Kenny. That's a lovely way of looking at it.
Kids are so funny! Wonder what her picture would like if she drew you now? Hehehe
That sounds ominous Becky Jane. Now you've got me worried!
