One nice thing about the timing of lessons this week, when I've take little00 back to daycare on Monday and today (the days they're both in daycare), littlest00's room has been outside for playtime. Has been nice to drop off little00, then sneak outside to surprise littlest00 with an unexpected visit. Both times he's been in a spot where he couldn't see me around the corner, so his teacher sees me and points me to him, and I pop into view, and I get "DAAADIIIE!!" His love language is definitely physical touch, so he's a hugger (to the point when he's upset, he'll say "I need a hug")...so he definitely gets a big hug from me before I head out. Good times.

Well, unless her kids are a pudgy little twerp (rest of week), or Carvers adopted a very dark skinned black bodybuilder-type teen (substitute today), she's not taking away little00's instructor.

Of the ones currently guarding, two are weightlifters and tan from the pool, but not exactly bodybuilders. The third is young and kind of scrawny. That's the one I got to protect me from sheep man.

Yeah, I guess weightlifter would probably be a better description for the substitute, but there ain't no way your boys tan that well to be this guy.

Los Angeles police found more than 1,200 guns, nearly 7 tons of ammunition, bows and arrows, knives, machetes and $230,000 in cash inside Lash's home last Friday.

"There's no evidence he was a drug dealer or he stole these weapons, or had any criminal source of income, no stolen property, all the stuff you'd look for."

Those two statements don't belong in the same article

That's simply because they left out one adjective several times.

I'll give Carvers's kids the benefit of the doubt that they took after their mother and are incredibly good looking. Because if that's the case, chocolate doesn't matter. Chicks will swoon regardless of what you do.

My boys all suffer with the ladies in high school because they are smart and nerdy. I did however, overhear a conversation once about my now 25 year old that showed there was hope for them. When he was about a junior in high school, we had gone to the movies and the boys were sitting up front and the husband and I were about eight rows back. Giggling group of high school girls in front of us. One questions whether "cute guys" are around. another says my oldest is up front. One girl says something to the effect that he's too smart, and another girl said she would rather be with a smart guy than a dumb one.

Once they hit college, they get the girls that need help passing some simple intro class in math or science, then dump them when it's over.:rolleyes:

Their smarts, good looks, and nerdyness they get from Dad, shyness from me.

The scary truck driver would say otherwise.

high school girls be dumb. The smart, good-looking quiet guys are where it's at. The popular "hot" guys in high school pretty much become the town barflies 15-20 years down the road. "Too smart" doesn't even make sense! Too smart as in he'll go places in life?! DH being smarter than me was good motivation. I couldn't let him be that much better, so I took the ACTs again to close the gap.

Didn't you say oldest is now at (or visited) some pretty top schools?

I'm not calling you a liar Carvers, but I've got 4 years of high school data that completely contradicts this statement
