Is there any hope for me?

Conversation this AM while making my bed

Marshall: Mommy, did you know this carpet is a swirly mud hole?

Mommy: No, I didn't realize that.

Marshall: And there are swirly mudhole worms that live in it....and they eat people.

Mommy: Well I don't want to be eaten by any swirly mudhole worms.


And here it is.....the clincher....spoken in his most serious, grave voice.


Marshall: Well, all we can do is hope.

Peonies

These little fragrant beauties have been blooming all over the yard....it was definitely a "peony year".

The World According to Marshall




Maybe I should say Marshall aka "VanOort paparazzi". If you ever wanted to know what a celebrity feels like having a camera flash at them for hours on end come to our house. ;-) Or at least until his batteries run out. The kid has an eye though....Uncle Mike will be proud. Maybe not the butt shot, but he has some awesome photographs....I'll share more later.
