Sometimes the other people who have cute children put videos of said children up on YouTube. I imagine this will be all over the world by the end of the weekend. One of the cutest things ever.



If you like cute kid videos I also recommend you go to YouTube and search for "Charlie bit me." It's old, but adorable. Nothing at all to do with vampires, fortunately.

Sometimes other people have cute grandchildren.


These belong to smiles4u2 at My Life Interrupted. She and her husband are raising the the littler girl and the older boy themselves. From the sounds of it, doing a very good job. Go read her post about "little man," as she calls him. The thought we put into raising our kids is never wasted. Finding the right answer is an extra added bonus.

Ah. Saturday. Tea. Toast. Morning.

It's also the 4th of July. A holiday which if we're lucky involves fireworks, lakes, oceans, charred food, cold drinks, children, and watermelon. Let me do my part by introducing Pretty Girl (as she is known) to you. She is Lipstick at the Mailbox's daughter. Cute as a bug in a rug my mother would say. Don't you love the fancy white hairbow? The enthusiasic watermelon biting? The little knuckle dimples on her little hands?


Lipstick points out a dandelion growing under the planter. Hmm. Didn't notice.

Happy 4th of July to all.

My children are growing and grown. No chubbiness anywhere in the vicinity. Everyone is in control of their own hair and the clothes on their bodies. Luckily other people keep having kids. Cute kids. Really cute kids.

Let me introduce you to Zoe.


Oh my god. Have you ever seen such a beautiful little girl? Her mom blogs here with lots of other pictures of her two cute children. My favorite is the one where Zoe wears an Easter basket on her head.

And how about Eli?

As Ree Drummond would say, stick a fork in me, I'm done. Those curls. The kilt? I have to clench my teeth against the siren song of toddler flesh. Eli's mom just got married. She wore a big poufy tulle dress and a jeans jacket. We are waiting for more pictures...

Thanks guys. Keep it up. Keep having such cute children. It helps those of us who can be reduced to tears by a picture of our little ones as toddlers. It helps us not to urge our children to produce grandchildren sooner than is optimal. We appreciate your help. Our kids probably do too.
