The opposite of "Ode"

My husband has to stay at school late for some (stupid) mock trial thing they do at law school to prepare them for the real world. I know that it gives them experience, but I really hate it! So I decided to write a poem. It's a horrible one, but it sure did make me feel a lot better.

I hate moot court a lot
I wish that you would be shot
In the head
So that you were dead
You suck away all my husband's time
And for what? Just so that I can whine?
You make me so very mad
that it's impossible for me to be glad
I hate you and you obviously hate me
Soon I'll have my husband back and then you'll see
that you suck.

My Little Model

My little man has been sporting some different looks these days. He seems to have the most fun with the onesie pajamas I put him in every night. I guess he has a different idea for what his outfits should look like.

This is his off-the-shoulder look, partnered with a pouty face just for good measure.


He always seems to wriggle out of his pajama legs, apparently he wants to show a little leg!

Sunday Kid Quote

So, I had a visitor in my Sunday school class today. His name was Kalvin (with a K!) and he was 7 years old. What a character! Even though he gave me a ton of grief for the two hours I knew him, he did provide me with TWO great quotes today:


After he (finally) did something I asked, I told him "Thanks for being a good sport." To which he replied, "ACTUALLY the only sport I'm good at is Wii Boxing."

Randomly, he blurted out, "The quiet game is awesome because it reminds me to shut my mouth!" Yes Kalvin, why don't we play that game...

Help to Finish the Race

So this may come as a surprise to some of you, but moving away from almost all your friends and family, not being able to get a job, and having a baby while your husband's in grad school isn't exactly roses ;). What? Oh, you knew that? While I was trying to find comfort, I found this on lds.org and thought I would share it with everyone. So touching and encouraging, don't know what I would do without the Gospel of Jesus Christ.


I couldn't figure out how to include the video, so here is the link:
