Rambling

Caelan was up early this morning- I'm guessing as she didn't call to be taken out of hr crib until 7am- so she is taking a short nap. Brenna is sitting on the potty. We had some success the past couple of days and hope to have continued potty use.

Speaking of success, did you make it down the page to see this: (Link takes you to pictures of it opened)

I am pretty darn impressed with myself.

There isn't really much going on here. In just a little bit I'll load the girls into the bike trailer and head to the park. It's already hot and humid outside. Heading for insane hot & humid. Best to get the outside stuff out of the way early.

And in the news:

I don't usually write much about the news but this article caught my eye: Father in Honor Killing Found Guilty of Murder.

I suppose I should be more shocked by the story itself but, sadly, it is becoming more common (more than 100 other killings in Britain are being investigated as "honor killings". What bothers me the most is that this girl went to the police multiple times and was dismissed.

Now, I'm positive that my family didn't approve of many of the guys I dated. Honestly, I think they approved of 3, maybe 4, one of whom I married. Lucky for Doug. But I'm pretty sure the thought of killing never even entered their minds.
