Facebook message from niece: Which Korean place did you go to??…Being on vacation…without a license kind of limits you to McDonald’s and Taco Bell (no complaints with the Taco Bell though). Oh by the way, whenever you say “Taco Bell”, where do you put the emphasis? I put it on taco, but “R” puts it [...]
She’s five-years-old today! Sounds like it’s delicious spaghetti and ice cream cake tonight.
My niece who’s in high school visited today, and I remembered that she has this friend who adores Seth Rogen. The friend’s problem is that she liked Seth Rogen better when he was packing a little more weight. She’s pretty certain she can get him to marry her in the future. I suggested (or was [...]
It’s already August. So far, a nice weekend with a birthday party (with Thriller MJ making an appearance; there was an 80s/90s theme), my nephew’s martial arts promotion, and my friends moving in to their new home. I’d write more, but I need sleep.

Sometimes when I hang out with my four-year-old niece, some of her stuff ends up in my bag. This time I have a fake Disney price tag for her toy cash register. The other item? A plastic throwing star. Don’t worry. It doesn’t have pointy edges that she can use on her 13-month-old brother, not [...]
Today, my niece is fifteen years old. Happy Birthday to her! Now, I feel bad about not mentioning all the other birthdays that have already passed this year. Happy Birthday again to everyone who had one between January 1st and July 19th.

I asked my nephew if he wanted me to get any movies for him on Netflix, and he said he was pretty flexible as long as the movie does not include the following: Zombies Vampires Ghosts Sharks I think he made a list of all the things I would like to see in one movie. [...]
Tuesday morning my neice and I were sitting in the kitchen eating breakfast. She looked out the window and saw a squirrel running on top of the fence up on the hill. She called him a “coconut man.” That really cracked me up, and I told her that they were called squirrels. I prefer her [...]

For someone who’s tired of Star Wars, having the last two posts be about Star Wars doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Last night, I spent some time with my older nephew since my brother had to go to a parent/teacher meeting. We played chess, laser tag, and “lightsaber duel to the death.” I [...]
I took my niece to the bathroom today, and she said, “If my pee was cheese, and the poo was chicken, it would like like a hamburger.” Then she giggled a lot. Don’t worry, we’ve taught her the difference between a hamburger and chicken sandwich. The other day she said that a Number 3 is [...]
My four-year-old niece has a stuffed toy dog named Baggy. He has velcro on his paws because he came into her house holding a rolled-up red blanket as a Christmas present. When I asked what she would name a pet chicken (I made her some scrambled eggs for breakfast), she answered, “Froggy.” I like the [...]

Nothing against my parents or siblings, but I wouldn’t trade these kids for anything. Today, my older niece and I drop off my younger niece at her preschool. The teacher asks us if Caity is just as fun and crazy at home and we emphatically answer, “YES!” Teacher turns back to look at Caity and [...]
