Preggar Sweets Junkie: Krispy Kreme
The girls’ best friend, Kristin Stewart, came over the other day to play. We had gone to sign them up for a summer camp together for a couple of weeks this summer. It was a crazy, blistering, unseasonably cold day that day. I made sure I asked the girls to bring sweaters but they refused [...]

Thelma: Ahhh-tist.
Thelma was inspired to do a painting the other day. She found this extra piece of plywood I had in our shed and painted it white. Working on her masterpiece. Truly an artist at work. It’s almost like she’s doing a dance. Go on girl! Get that creativity out! -Jane, Mother of Artistic Thelma.
