Single parent for four days

Today started out with Cody waking us up bright and early. At first he was just like, “Hi guys, how’s it going… By the way I took a peek and the Easter bunny was here”. He was very nonchalant about it and made small talk for about 3 - 4 minutes then suddently, “Come on [...]

Thirteen things that rock about having your tonsils out
