Home from cre824 Chattanooga

Posted on November 20, 2005December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I just got home about 15 minutes ago. Here\’s a summary. Joshua is a man among men and I’m honored to call him friend. Great time just talking, joking, walking about, eating pizza, taking pictures … I wish it could’ve been longer and I look forward to our next time together. cre824 was hit and…

Just another shot of testosterone

Posted on November 9, 2005December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

For any of you who have children, and any of you who have boys, and any of you whose boys aren’t year 4 1/2 – 5 years old … beware. There will come a moment, seemingly overnight, when they turn into the Hulk. They will roar. They will charge. They will turn green. They will…

Overhead as Elliott plays with his friend

Posted on November 9, 2005December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I love being “incognito” in the office and what I get to overhear the kids say. 10 seconds ago here’s what Elliott said to his friend Yale: Elliott: “That’s my dad, Paul. He’s always funny. He likes to fart on my neck.” That’s tough to live up too.

This reminds me …

Posted on October 31, 2005December 6, 2019 by Sonya Armstrong

“The woods are lovely, dark and deep but I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep and miles to go before I sleep” — Robert Frost, “Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening’ I’ve always loved the woods. As a young girl I spent many hours and moments with my…

Funny things said today

Posted on October 29, 2005December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

A few snapshots of funny things; which are the only highlights of this day so far amongst all the fighting and hitting and pushing and yelling between the kids (plus blisters and sore back from raking leaves for 2 hours). Elliott: Daddy you should sit in the hot tub and tell other men about how…

Rain, Rain, Go Away

Posted on October 25, 2005December 6, 2019 by Sonya Armstrong

Rainy, cold October days are my least favorite days unless I can just curl up by the fireplace and get lost in a good book. Unfortunately, that scenario will not be played out today. Instead, Elliott’s preschool class is scheduled to meet at the pumpkin patch. I would think it would be cancelled if it…

Dear Strange Man parked outside our house

Posted on October 22, 2005December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I’m not sure why you were parked by our mailbox. Nor do I understand why you waited till the kids came out onto the driveway to pull forward, take out a camera, and snap a picture then abruptly drive off. Its creepy. Just so you know we called the police. Whatever you were doing, it…

Conversations with my children

Posted on October 17, 2005December 4, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

So I went solo bed time with the kiddo’s tonight and here are some of the strange and random things we talked about. Elliott: “Why did God make people? Why did God have to rest? Does He like beds and sleepy time and warm under the covers like me?’ Daddy/Me: “I bet He does. He…

The one about bullies

Posted on October 12, 2005December 4, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Apparently bullying starts younger than I remember. Every year Abigail\’s school switches up the class make up (for whatever reason). Five of Abigail’s classmates from her Kindergarten class are in her 1st grade class. One of them was what Abigail called a “friend” (whatever that might mean in 5 year old land). But this year…

Parent or hostage?

Posted on September 16, 2005December 4, 2019 by Sonya Armstrong

Once again we have striked out in obtaining a babysitter for tonight, so I will be staying home, as usual (I rarely ever go anywhere without kids in toe!) and Paul will be going solo to support our friend Jason and his band tonight….“rock on Jason ;-)” I am so tired of not being able…
