Ooochie Goochie Goo, Spring has arrived!

The new business is keeping me busy, folks. This is good, yes? Not good for the blog, but good for my family's checking account balance...

Spring is here! Also good, no? I love the new season so much, I've been catching myself talking in a baby voice to crocuses and other sprouting greenery in my perennial garden.

"Hi there little purple flowers! Hi there! I love you! Welcome to the world little friends!!!" I say to the plants in a high pitched voice as if they were newborn babies, as my children look at me and then at each other with an expression like, "Wow! This is acceptable? This way of speaking to greenery? I never knew! Cool!"

Little do they know they were born to a whack-job and they will most likely be teased at school because of it.

I'm just preparing them for the worst, that's all. Check out the new Flickr photos over here to the right. The kidlets are getting all gosh darn grown up. (Sniff, sniff.)

So THAT'S where the obnoxiously squeaky voice was coming from! I was just getting ready to call the men in white coats when the voice stopped - couldn't track it down.
Believe me, your kids may be young but they're bright as hell and they already knew you were a whack-job before you started talking to your yard.

Don't worry if the kids think you're crazy, it makes for a fun household. Besides, people will only believe that you are crazy when you start talking to inanimate objects, like the floor, or the toaster. Flowers don't count...they grow...therefore they are living.

Your little tartlets are growing up so fast. And they're beautiful, but you already knew that, right Mom?
