An Update

Well hello everyone. As you can see from all the pictures, we have been pretty busy. I have had a ton of trial work this past few weeks and it just keeps coming. I had an EEO-discrimination trial two Fridays ago. Word to the wise, if you are going to file a gender-based discrimination suit against the US government, please remember NOT to admit on cross-examination that you were NOT discriminated against based on your gender. That puts a little damper on your case. Next week, I have a court-martial involving a guy who decided to throw another guy down a flight of stairs. As Buffett sings, "All the stories we could tell...."

As for Kerrie, she is still plugging along doing her banker thing. And making more money than me. She's my sugar mama.

Morgan and K are doing fine too. Morgan had a great first quarter of middle school with all A's and B's. She also made Basic, which is her school's choir. Karlyle continues to amaze us with the words that come out of her mouth. For instance, today she walks up to a display case that has a saxophone in it. She looks at her mom and says, "Mom, that is an instrument." She has also developed quite a fondness for Barbies, Cabbage Patch Kids, and more Barbies. Other new phrases include, "I donnnnn like it" (you have to hear it to appreciate it - she never says the "T" in don't and holds the word (pronounced "doan") for about 4 seconds before saying "like it" - funny stuff), she answers questions with "of course, daddy, of course I do", and she has started calling Kerrie "your majesty" instead of "mommy".

This is our house.
