21
oh, chica.
you're 21.
its old, yes. legal, yes.
but it cannot make you deny your mother when she says things like...
"its hat day"

(welcome to stroesslerland, hillary!)
or, "throw out those boots, they're heinous"

or, "here, shove this warm apple-y dessert in your face"
or, "every girl/lady/woman wants a little blue box"
(though, who's denying that??)

to be fair...at least you weren't the one in the tutu!

couch antics
the pink-striped couch is legendary in the chicago-based stroesslerland. its one of the things i'm always telling gigi i'm looking forward to --
"i can't wait to hang out on the pink-striped couch."
as ridiculous as it sounds, i'm completely serious. i love this couch.
we've fought over who gets to sleep there, thrown the delightfully countless pillows off in fits of glee or frustration, and cuddled up for many a viewing of The Grinch on christmas eve. its comfy, consistent; i can't get enough.
and now, neither can shua.
so long as he has his hansy and his fast car shoes, the couch will live on.
you may also want to note the serious lack of camera-shyness in this kid. as soon as he realizes i'm filming, you better believe he's ready to roll.

the road home
we just spent a long weekend in chicago celebrating chicapalooza.
(happy birthday, chica!
we had a blast palooza-ing you!)
there are pictures & stories coming soon,
but we had to post this first.
on our way home,
somewhere in northern indiana,
joshua made me laugh so hard i choked.
it made him laugh so hard he choked.
we started singing,
laughing and choking,
& out came the video camera.

decisions, decisions
there comes a time in every young man's life when he has to start making his own decisions.
particularly when his seal is no longer interesting and he just knows that there is something better in the backyard. parents remain welcome but apparently unnecessary.
