• Max and I made yucky soup for the zombies in rockets. Alice ran pell-mell. Just another weekend. #SMAtuS #
• Max, on entering the dance studio: "Yes! This is the place for me!" Alice, on leaving: "Alice and Momma go do Stuff!" #SMAtuS #
• This is almost the best thing ever: http://t.co/NhKRdg4 #
• Alice got out some pens and paper for herself. She: "I draw dots." And she was. #SMAtuS #
• A kid kicked Alice in the nose as she came up a play structure. She said "Hey! No do that! Going to get you" and he ran off. #SMAtuS #
• Alice's new yes is "I think so!" Example: "Alice, would you like an egg?" "I think so!" "Alice, is your shirt purple?" "I think so!" #SMAtuS #
• Max is reading to Alice! (My work here is done. Right?) #SMAtuS #
• Last night, Alice had her first swim class with me. We had a great time. A memory I will treasure always. All that Kick'Em paid off! #SMAtuS #

• Alice started off the day as a superhero. Really, where can you go from there? #SMAtuS #
• Max: Mom, I am making you a beautiful power belt because you are so beautiful to me. Mine is just red, but yours is beautiful. #SMAtuS #
• Two years ago today, the sweetest little baby girl was born. Add on toughness and hilarity and you've got our Alice. Happy birthday! #SMAtuS #
• @HillaryJacques WHAT?!!?!!? What madness is this? Has everyone been taking crazy-pills!? in reply to HillaryJacques #
• @HillaryJacques You have my permission to sic the flaming hobos on them. Cry havoc and let slip the tramps of war! in reply to HillaryJacques #
• In our family we do it right: four day birthday celebrations! (Also, I'm pretty sure Alice had the Best Day Ever yesterday.) #SMAtuS #

• @L_Hoff That was pretty harsh for him, but he was a pretty jaded fantasyland dweller. (As am I!) Found it quite satisfying, as endings go. in reply to L_Hoff #
• Alice's breakfast: 1 bottle milk, countless pieces of seaweed, 1 bowl yogurt with blackberries (picked yesterday), laughs. #SMAtuS #
• @HillaryJacques The Trader Joe's brand, whatever that is. We haven't introduced her to other kinds. She'd eat a whole package if we let her. in reply to HillaryJacques #
• It occurred to me yesterday that Alice's profile looks just like that of a Peanuts character. #SMAtuS #
• No one expected the Cake Pirate to jump out of that Prize Cake and make off with it. Least of all Max. Here's to the Cake Pirate! #SMAtuS #
• @zahgurim That's crazy. Though not surprising. Silly parents. You have to fight the ParentFear, keep it from colonizing your brain. in reply to zahgurim #
• For your information, the Cake Pirate only steals cakes. He is not interested in plundering tarts, doughnuts, croissants, or other pastries. #
• Man, it's almost like these kids have no way to regulate their emotions or something! #SMAtuS #
• I unwittingly unleashed a swarm of fruit flies at the breakfast table. It's just like At the Mountains of Madness all over again! #SMAtuS #
• When told he could take a dance class, Max, whispering: "Do I get a top hat and cone?" Sarah: "You mean cane?" Max: "Yes!" #SMAtuS #
• @HillaryJacques Jealous! in reply to HillaryJacques #
