----------------
j: i smell sumpin'.
g: what do you smell?
j: dirt.
----------------
j: i am cookster man!
g: who is cookster man?
j: cookster man!
g: do you cook things?
j: yes.
g: what do you cook?
j: beans.
g: anything else besides beans?
j: oranges. cookster man wears gloves, too. (now jumping around) cookster man!
------------------
j: i smell sumpin'.
g: what do you smell.
j: i smell your poop. stinks like a stunk (this is how he says skunk).
-------------------
g: jack, come here i want to show you something.
j: (entering the room) what's up?
--------------------
the phone rings, but mommy doesn't hear it because she is vacuuming. jack goes and gets the phone then brings it to mommy,
j: mommy, you need to call somebody.

Okay, that's it. I must confess that I am a closet Agent Orange reader. The End.

That feels so much better.

Anyway, Greg, hi, it's Amy. Hi, Shannon! Hi, Jack and Cade! I can't stand the feeling of spying on your life any longer without at least letting you know.

So I think the catalyst for me coming clean was the hysterical entry about Jackisms. I'm talking laugh-out-loud material. I love the nodding and the knowing..."chips."

And don't worry, I haven't been stalking every entry for the past several years...just the occassional check-in. But now that I'm "out," I may your number one biggest fan. I just love the voice of your blog!

That is all...just saying hello and letting you know that your family is fantastic. So funny, so spunky, so beautiful.

And please let us know when the pillowcase gets its next washing. Fascinating stuff, I'm serious.

Now, see, I have to go back and rephrase my comment. I think the blog is MUCH more than funny! I admit that it does make me laugh, but it is provoking and challenging and raw, too...and I really think it's fantastic. Award-winning. Thanks for sharing so much of your life with your readers. And thanks, Crafty P, for providing the link!

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day.

happiness is dry underwear

we started potty training jack on thursday. we followed a program called POTTY TRAIN IN ONE DAY, which, by the way, i think is kind of crazy. i mean, if someone were to offer you a book called, "ACHIEVE WORLD PEACE IN ONE DAY" i don't think you would take it seriously. and yet here we are, trying to accomplish an equally daunting task in one 24-hour period. it is intense. the day is shrouded in a lie because as soon as your happily diapered child wakes up you tell him that it is a big party. we had balloons and streamers and noisemakers and silly string - all the trappings of a legitimate party. but it is most certainly not a party. it is a hellishly exhausting day. as soon as jack got out of bed, we gave him a present: an anatomically correct doll that wets himself. jack named him quincy. several times quincy successfully peed in the potty and even had an accident or two in his "big boy underwear." he also dropped a deuce that looked and smelled sus...

i'm giving away the swamp

so this is a collage called swamp. i made it in february of last year. it is currently framed in a homemade, hand-painted frame. it is paper collage on a book binding panel. it is 7" x 10". and i am giving it away. i've been wanting to have a blog giveaway for some time, and the time has finally arrived. here's how it works. all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. by leaving a comment you are automatically entered into the contest (as long as your comment offers a way for me to get in touch with you, or you know that i know you). the contest will be open until next wednesday at noon, eastern standard time. at that time the contest will officially be closed and i will pick a random number. the person whose comment matches that number wins! for example, if i happen to pick the number 33, the thirty-third comment will win. oh, and one more rule: you can only post ONCE. if you win, i will send you the collage, signed by me, the artist, free of c...
