Be Prepared

Phillip defines emergency preparedness as having a tent, some food, and a multipurpose knife thing. I would add that it's also important to have at least three sets of measuring cups (in case you need a 2/3 cup measure and you've already dirtied two of them cooking other things).

Joy defines preparedness as wearing a jacket for cold weather, shorts for warm weather, a pool toy in case there's a swim party, and her pillow in case she gets tired. I don't know what the blue ring is for, but I'm sure it could come in handy somehow.

Daniel likes to be prepared, too. He's got all upcoming holidays accounted for: pumpkin socks for Halloween, a bib for Thanksgiving dinner, and Joy's Santa bear for Christmas. Daniel puts the happy in "Happy Holidays." :)

i never leave comments, but i look at your blog and sweet babies every time you post. i hope that's not weird. just wanted to say hello, your kids are cute, and i just checked your personal blog and enjoyed reading what you had to say. sometimes people don't comment but we're out there enjoying what you're saying. the volcano made me laugh out loud and the ganache hit close to home. i think i have decided that having a bag of chocolate chips around means i will always have some chocolate on hand, if i have a craving. unfortunately my level of class doesn't usually include ganache, but goes something like: open bag, pour chips in hand, put chips in mouth, repeat. hope life is treating your family well, looks like it is.
