A day in suburbia with this housewife, her hubby, two kids and things that go BOOM.

Stand back. This sucker's gonna blow.

Deep thoughts

This morning, a weary seven-year-old boy wandered into my bedroom and snuggled in next to me. Still warm and rumpled with sleep he told me, "Momma, I had a nightmare."

When I asked if he wanted to talk about it, he told me what he dreamt:

"It was my birthday. But no one came. Well, Oma came, but no one else showed up. I didn't get any presents. All I got was a card."

"When I opened it, it was empty."

*sigh*

(I want to punch that dream in the face.)
