Life With Boys

The mis-adventures of two crazy boys and their bleary eyed parents.


  • So frustrated- Morgan pick up your coat (it was in the middle of the floor) – he throws on the couch. Morgan put your coat away- he bunches it up and shoves it on the bench in the kitchen (His reasoning – he might need it again sometime). MORGAN hang up your coat in the… Continue reading

  • Watched TV without the sound most of the morning because I could not remember the nuclear launch sequence to turn it back on Continue reading

  • Life lessons …

    In response to my question about what he thought about the wrestling tournament today Morgan responded , “I still have a lot to learn” – a pretty mature response I think. Win or not win (because a not win reflects knowledge gained that a loss would not) I am so proud of him. Continue reading

About Me

I started this site so my mom could get news about her grandkids without me having to walk her through the process of trying to open and email attachment several times a week.  Since then she has passed away and I’ve fallen off the blog wagon, but I’m inspired to pick it up again now.
