I wrote song about the trials and tribulations of Meow Meow. Later I debuted it before a small crowd.

Lending a hand


Helping Dad with a home improvement project. My main job was to let him know when it appeared something wasn't going right.

15 minutes of fame

Who's that on page 45 of the November/December issue of Midwest Living magazine? It's me! The photo shoot was a success!

A minor miracle, really

Sometimes you feel like nap.
Sometimes you don’t.

Sick five-year-olds should take naps.
But I won’t.

And then… I did. A two-and-a-half-hour nap!

On the mend?


Had to miss another day of school due to illness. Must be getting serious because my color isn't looking so good.

My dear doctor

An ear infection sent me to Dr. Soltz's office. I sure will miss him when he retires in December. He's been my doctor since Day One and has seen me with an ear infection more than once. More than twice, actually. Okay, a bunch of times.

Right now, I'm here to supervise. But someday, and someday soon, I'll be driving the truck. And the combine!

Top-secret, personal beeswax

We read a book about Junie B. Jones at school, so I was excited to see "Junie B. Jones - The Musical" at the Wichita Children's Theater and Dance Center.

The best backyard ever

Sometimes it's fun just lying down in the grass and looking up at the big, blue sky.

Sand and summer fun

Better get my sandbox time in while I can as the weather will turn cold soon. Can't believe I've had it for two years already.

Lots going on

A soccer practice uniform + a half-eaten apple + a sprinkler + a tomato I picked from the garden + a pesky cat (not pictured) = ? Just a typical Tuesday night for me.
