*** ADVENTURES OF A MINISTER-IN-TRAINING ***

He's Baaaaack!

Hey gang. I'm back, I'm black, and ready to get crack...ing on more blogg...ing... aaaand I've just ruled out poetry, rap, and spoken word for alternative career plans. 

I've had a few weeks break [total work overwhelm] and I'm done class for a month so I'm returning to the blogosphere at a time that I'm guaranteed to be awake til at least one in the morning more often than not because it's NBA PLAYOFFS BABEEEEE! so for the next month and a half I'll be a walking sleep-deprived-yet-wired zombie most likely blogging as I watch the games which might lead to nonsensical postings [nothing new] and ridiculously lengthy run-on sentences posing as paragraphs [more nothing new].

Please breathe now if you rely on punctuation for air.

This morning's blog fodder comes courtesy of my sweet eight-year-old offspring Joy and my less-than-perfect parenting skills. Joy was bitten on her chest by a tick [we think] a few days ago when she visited the great outdoors also known as the in-laws' homestead. We thought we'd pulled it out but there's a huge swollen red bump in the middle of her chest. 

And the conversation went like this:

Jen: That's huge! It's like Chandler!
Me: HA-HA-HA!!
Joy: HA-HA-HA!!
Me: Why are you laughing? You don't get it!
Joy: Yes I do-Chandler has three nipples! 
Me & Jen: NO MORE FRIENDS!!

Parenting lesson for today: Yeah...she was watching.

Welcome Back! Awesome luck on my part that the weeks I neglect my reader, are the same weeks you go MIA. :)
And yes, that's a lesson I've been learning as well: They're ALWAYS watching! LOL

Hahaha, that child is so much smarter than you think/thought! She's watching *everything*... :) Good luck with that!
