* Several months ago Christopher mentioned being a little concerned that Annabelle didn’t seem to use her imagination. Fast forward to now and she has two imaginary friends named Goldbug and Garby. They’re very small, have their own car seats and frequently eat meals with us. They came to Dollywood but thankfully I didn’t have to worry about keeping track of them. She asked me to make a leaf car so she could drive them to town. I think her imagination is just fine.
* I LOVE jokes. I have a folder of photos on my phone dedicated to all the best jokes. I am the prime audience for all the dad joke videos on youtube. I was laying on my bed last week not folding laundry (professional procrastinator, party of one) watching said videos and sending them to the twins. I was cracking myself up. It takes so little to entertain me.
I’ve been telling this gem to everyone who will listen.
* AB loves to see “the faces” on my phone. We’ve spend many minutes entertaining ourselves with the many filters. 

* When we were watching The Crown I casually mentioned that I needed a crown. Look what appeared in my mailbox a few weeks later.
I haven’t worn it out of the house yet but I plan on bringing it to Prince Harry’s wedding. Do I think Meghan Markle is ANYWHERE near the level of Katherine Middleton? No. Does that mean I won’t be obsessed with all the details of the royal wedding? Also no. You know who would be shocked by the upcoming nuptials? John Adam, Thomas Jefferson and everyone who fought to separate us from England. They dedicated their lives to the cause only for an American girl to marry an heir (albeit sixth in line) to the British throne. She is literally sleeping with the enemy. Their wedding is set to be held in May and I am already preparing myself for the festivities. I’ll be wearing my crown because while Meghan is marrying a prince and I’m not, we’re both Americans and therefore have the right to wear a crown whenever we so choose. God bless America.
