Mama in New England

This is us, as I navigate motherhood and enjoy the amazing adventure.

We are a family of four, a cat and a dog, living outside Boston, Massachusetts. I started this blog as a way to update friends and family who are afar, but it seems to have become somewhat therapeutic & helps me laugh when I need to.

Halloween trial

Sam is going to be a tiger for Halloween and Vivian is going to be Minnie Mouse.  They both tried on their costumes and have been wearing them around.  Sam decided he should have some prey to carry around with him.  "Good idea," I agreed.  "How about a stuffed animal."
"Great!" He said, then paused.  "Mom, do tigers eat mice?"
"I don't know, probably," I told him, not catching on.  Then realizing my mistake, I quickly added, "tigers certainly do NOT eat Minnie Mouse."
"Oh, he said, looking disappointed and slightly guilty.  
"Your sister is not your prey." 
He walked away looking thoughtful. : o
