Things that happened today that don't usually happen...

Jarryn (3) cracked an egg to see if there was a baby chick in it! We don't live on a farm so I presume he realised the concept that chicks hatch out of eggs from the multiple children's books we have in the house (he loves looking at books or being read to). Or maybe it's because Mom's been talking to him about the Easter story?... hmm, don't know if she mentioned any easter bunny eggs though.

One of Emma's (very nearly 9) 'baby' tooth  fell out today. (This wasn't her first.) We have a tooth mouse not a tooth fairy. This is because there's a story that Mom had from when she was a girl and she used the same story for us. Maybe that's where my fascination of mice comes from? Maybe not there's lot's of children's authors that write stories about mice.

I can cook! Truly, I'm not being sarcastic. But today I burned two lots of chips in the oven. Not my day today.

Joseph, one of my brothers, baked a cake for Jarryn because it's not Jarryn's birthday yet and he was really excited about this cake idea because it's Emma's birthday soon.

Response to recent natural disasters When people see natural disasters occurring, they often ask questions about why these occur.
