    I love my kids. They are a ton of work but I couldn’t imagine life without them. But being a parent is not for everyone and that’s ok.

    This meme was inspired by my wife telling me about our two year old having a full on five-alarm melt down at Sam’s Club and screaming, “I see Christmas trees! I go see Christmas trees!” While my wife tried to assure her that they would go see Christmas trees on the way out. All you can do is laugh at the sudden realization that the poor person with the screaming child in the middle of the store is you.




  • If my grandma wanted a cheeseburger, she would have kept it to herself and eaten a piece of smoked chicken that was hanging in the attic (where they stored the smoked chickens) instead because that’s what they could afford.

    In hindsight, I can kind of understand why my grandparents saved every damn thing that they ever bought. When you grow up dirt poor you find all kinds of new uses for what most people consider trash.

    I’ve had plenty of hard times in my life but “so poor I gotta save every egg carton like it’s made of gold” is not an experience I’m personally familiar with. I’m thankful for that.
