When is a Cup not a Cup?

All three of my sons and I are in Taekwondo, last night after an evening of sparring I asked my 7 year old, while he sucked on a slushy, if he had worn his cup while sparring.  The answer from him was a NO, while trying to explain to him that he MUST wear his cup, my 4 year old piped in to let me know that he and the 8 year old had to share a cup. (Forgetting they did share a single slushy from a single cup) I explained to him that both the 7 and 8 year old had their own cups.  It was then my friend, who was visiting, pointed out that we were talking about two different kinds of  cups. =)  I want Grandchildren, so those boys of my better start wearing their cup!

Great Fun!

Just finished, what I would consider, a good showing at my book signing.  I love talking with and meeting people, so this was right up my alley!  Pulled in about $100, not a bunch, but $100 more than I had when I left home!  And that is after the bookstore took their cut.  Slowly but surely, this ship will be launched!

What Better Way to Start the Morning?

My 4 year old started the day off by singing to me, a new song he had made up.  With voice high pitched and arms waving, with both enjoyed every minute of it!

Heading to Arkansas

The boys and I are taking a much needed vacation for a week or so.  Big stuff planned for my little guys, they are so excited.  I have a thing or two up my sleeve as well.  Looking forward to some time away.  See you all when we get back!  Happy Reading!
