"I try to be strong, but sometimes I just can't be strong." ~ our 7yo daughter, after getting teary when she permanently botched her art project at homeschool group time today

"And Daddy, and Popo, Amen!" ~ our just-turned-two daughter, with her hands folded, without prompting. She loves the men in her life!

"I have to give you 5 hugs and 5 kisses every night, and I have to give you 5 'I love yous, too!'" ~ our 5yo boy who, since his January birthday, is still very excited to be 5 whole years old and does everything possible in multiples of five

"Am I bothering you? I think I might be bothering you, and I don't like it when I'm bothering people." ~ 7yo daughter to me while we are gardening this evening
"Oh, no! I like being with you. You're never a bother." ~ me, to 7yo
"No, sometimes I'm a bother."
"Never," I say.
"Sometimes I think I might be. Am I ever a bother?" she asks.
"Well...you're kind of being a bother when you keep asking if you're a bother."
"Yeah, I thought I was bothering you."
