NEW!! Do you allow your kids to talk back to strangers? -- This one was confusing for me. What do you think?

Do you let your kids watch scary movies? -- Personally, Harry Potter is about as much as I can handle.

Talking to your kids about race -- My favourite Momversation thus far.

What a shot! What a show! Because standing up on a horse isn't a big enough way to say HOORAY AMERICA! Because a huge flag isn't enough-er! A SPARKLER on top of it all! Woo Hoo!

Happy 4th!

May I suggest that the song of the day be "I'm Free" by the Soup Dragons? It's one of my all-time favorites, and I've been singing it all day long.

Wow! This photo is so amazing! Hope you had a good 4th in Houston. It kindly did not reach 100 degrees today in Austin. :)
