Born To Perform

January 29th, 2012 · No Comments

I don’t know how I missed this video until now. Thing 2 had his first grade Thanksgiving performance in November. I stayed home with Thing 3 and Thing 4, but SuburbanMommy recorded it. Maybe as she was focused on the video camera, she may not have even noticed what he was doing. [...]

Who’s Afraid Of A Little Thunder?

August 18th, 2011 · 7 Comments

A major thunderstorm tonight with thunder, lightning, and hail. Right as we were putting everyone to bed which didn’t help any.  We usually do pretty well with thunderstorms. Except for one Thing.  Can you guess which one gets scared from thunderstorms?
Is it Thing 1, who breaks into tears and has crazy endurance [...]
