Just wanted to reassure you...

that I'm not dead yet.  No, I'm still planning the M&M conference, and it's more fun than a barrel of monkeys!  I do hope to update my blog more frequently once we get past the conference, but I'm choosing to revise my novel with my writing time these days.  I MIGHT actually be getting the hang of this whole revision thing.

So, don't abandon me completely.  The two sources of the majority of my funny stories arrive home this evening, plus I'm thinking about a post about whether or not being irritated at demonstrative with indefinite antecedents makes me a bad mother.  Or do I score some brownie points for not throwing so many grammatical terms at my children?  Hey, you can chew on that while I wrap up the conference!

  1. It took my son three months to learn it is wasps with an s sound and not wazs with no p and the z sound and he was seven.

    Bear with them and learn to think their incorrect usage is cute vice annoying. :-)

  2. Oh, it's cute. Her Majesty is always saying something from the backseat like "I don't like that." I can't look back there, so I'm like, "You don't like that what?" "That!" And this goes back and forth to the point where I caught myself just as I was about to say, "Look I can't understand indefinite antecedents while driving."

    Come to think of it, it would have been fun to see what her teachers would have made of a 4-year-old who mentioned antecedents.
