You Know…

11 Feb

You know it’s almost February 14th when you spend an hour supervising your 4-year-old as she signs her Valentine’s Day cards:

And after signing Valentine #25 her “N” is still a sideways “S.”

You know you are on your way to becoming a computer nerd like your dad when he buys you a hat like this:

And you wear it with pride.

You know that you have cabin fever when you go for a walk:

Despite the impending rain and 40 degree temperatures.

You know that there is no hope for this country when you buy a package of  T-shirts:

And it comes with a disclaimer like this:

You know it’s winter when Maya’s school has it’s annual Snow Day:

And she tells you she would like to be referred to as “Snow Girl” going forward.

You know you’ve sunk to a new low when you boil zucchini, top it with marinara and flaxseed oil:

And proclaim it an acceptable substitute for the spaghetti dinner you just cooked your family.

You know your dad rocks when he comes back from India bearing a bunch of new scarves:

And you love them all.  And him too, even if you don’t tell him often enough.
