truth is tweezy

me-
"hey, why do you have the tweezers?"

k-
"so i can dig tiny rocks out of the earth."

me-
"you can not use those for rocks - i need them!"

k-
"so you don't grow a beard?"

me-
"uh...  yeah...  well...  yes.  pretty much."

sheesh!

a very young gymnast


there are several books on my,
"read them at least 100 times, maybe more"
list.

this is one of them.
by jill krementz

i must have stared at this picture 1,000 times,
but i recently noticed something new.
the mom.
in the background.
do you see her?

all the other times i just saw the gymnast.
in the front.

now i am the mom.
standing in the background.
a gym mom.

and let me tell ya,
it is not as easy as it looks.
but maybe if i had those jeans...
