Like mother, like daughter

My kids were all over each other today. Every last thing was a fight. After J. left with a friend for the afternoon and evening, I asked K. what she would like to do. Currently, we have two types of banana bread in the oven, marbled and coconut with lime glaze. While starting dinner, I asked her to turn on the Red Sox game so that we could check the score. The TV was on public TV, so she's currently glued to Lawrence Welk.

As a 3 year old, my great-grandmother was my only babysitter. I used to spend Saturday evenings at her house, watching Lawrence Welk and earning a penny for every pea I ate. K. has taken me right back to the big old house on Live Oak Road.
