My house last night…….

I am sitting in my bed attempting to write something.  There is men’s gymnastics playing on the TV, my girls are watching You Tube while trying to catch popcorn in their mouths, and as tired as I am after not sleeping for three days, I could not imagine this scene any different.

The girls and I threw Mr. Kell into the van and went out for a family dinner at Chilis.  I had ribs, and that is all that needs to be said about that.  I do not think that Mr. Kell talked about sports once.  My four year old brought a dollar to give to the waiter.  His face melted when I gave it to him.  Too precious.

Doesn’t it all sound a little hokey?

The truth is, YouTube lasted about 10 minutes, there is popcorn on my floor,  and my oldest went to her room to be “alone”.  Her baby sister was not happy, and started screaming in a pitch that Mariah Carey could not touch.  So being the awesome mom that I am, I stopped what I was doing to read about Fancy Nancy making cupcakes.  It is not smart to read about cupcakes when Aunt Ruby is visiting and all you want to do is devour a chocolate cake.

One of Fancy Nancy’s words was adore.

According to Ms. Nancy, adore means to really really like something.

So, In honor of Nancy, here are some things I am adoring right now.

• Most of the men swimming in the Olympics.  Lordy B are they nice to look at.
• The color mint green.  I want it everywhere.
• Swimming pools.
• Simple art.
• Homemade popsciles.
• Interesting reads.
• Top knots.

I wish I dominated a sport.

I would so rock beach volleyball for the vertically challenged!
