Say "Addie!"

Adam told me this morning that he was going to work on teaching Lily his name so that could be her first word. More power to ya, kiddo.

For a $20 box of fireworks from Sam's Club, we had quite a show last night. The kids love fireworks so much--I could easily live without them. But, I did my duty and they had fun and we were still in bed by soon after 10:00.

Dan agreed to help me clean up the house, today. We already have a very clean laundry room floor. The washer vibrated the brand new big bottle of liquid Tide right onto the floor, where it broke and spilled all over. What a mess. We have very clean rags, also.

So, thirty-nine weeks today. Big deal.

Over on the other side of town, five people have been shot in the last week. How are people responding? They are buying guns. Good thinking.
