Nature

Ever see a duck get molested by five suitors at the same time?  I have.  I have also seen two very nonchalant deer walk down my driveway from about fifteen feet away.  I have also had a giant effing bullfrog scare the daylights out of me while raking leaves.  Oh, and I've had to watch my husband pull a bloody dew-claw off my dog after she sustained the injury while frantically circling two ducks in our pond.  And as I type this I think I'm watching two squirrels flirt (although they may be trying to kill each other, i'm not really sure).  I love this property and all it's creepy inhabitants.

The Utmost Authority on All Things

Ah, Catie... you are the most wonderful thing.  You make me feel like the smartest person in the world!  Every statement of fact you make turns into a question by adding just one little word to the end... right?

"Mom, Maggie is going to get in trouble if she doesn't wear her helmet, right?"
"Mom, I like M&M's, right?"
"Mom, we don't want to show any friends our tushey  at school, right?"  Wait, what?

After all, when you don't know, ask an expert... even when you do know actually.  Just another three-year-old moment, sure to be gone by the time she turns four. Sigh.
