Hi, I'm Mama Soup. I am the home manager for this crazy clan and I have made it my personal mission to record, here on this blog, our attempts at simplifying our life. I am usually wearing an apron and either cooking up some treat or thinking about what I can cook. I also love to paint, jog and drink hot tea. Welcome and thanks for visiting.

Fish

Jonah awoke last night three times, each time I had to clean nasty gook out of his eye. So, this morning we made a trip to the Pediatrician. Our Pediatrician has a really neat fish tank right in the entry, which Jonah always loves, but this time he had a new perspective.

Jonah: Mama, come look at these fish.

Mama: Oh wow, they are pretty.

Jonah: May I touch them?

Mama: No, they are in a tank and we can't reach them.

Jonah: Well, can we eat them?

Mama: How would you purpose we do that?

Jonah: We CATCH them and CUT them up!!!

Mama: ------ (I wasn't really sure what to say here).

Crumbs in my boogers

G: What are you doing?

Jonah: (wiping his nose and somewhat picking it) There are crumbs in my boogers!

G: (talking to me) I know that feeling.
