"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson I came across this quotation by Emerson just recently. It followed a particularly rough morning getting the girls ready for school and out the door.

No Little Fishies for Caitlin

Being a huge penguin lover, and having had nearly a 2 month hiatus from my blog, I just had to share this cartoon as I write about Caitlin and fish. Unlike this loveable penguin Caitlin won't be refraining from any activity in order to eat fish.
Happy New Year 2009
