New Years Resolutions

So here it is the middle of February. And although I MADE some New Years Resolutions, I haven't actually STARTED any of them yet. Some are easy...one is extremely difficult.
I had good intentions back in January. It just didn't happen. However, I am now ready! I will start on Sunday :)
Below is a cute photo of the Drama Queen and her dad.

I'm Sorry Clementine. I Didn't Mean To....

I have made Clementine VERY sick. I put a Hartz flea collar on her until I could get to the vet for more Frontline. BAD mistake. After only a day and a half, little Clementine was almost dead. She was very lethargic and just generally not interested in anything. I've been carrying her to her food and water bowls to make sure she eats. Apparently flea collars are extremely toxic to some animals. Why are these things even being sold???
Here is a picture of Clementine before I inadvertently tried to kill her. She doesn't look this good anymore :(

Poor Clemmie...the vet said she will get better. It's just going to take a long time. I'm so sorry Clementine!

My daughter - Evil Knieval the Invisible Ninja

I'm glad that my daughter isn't some prissy little thing who sits quietly and plays with baby dolls non-stop. Yes, she does those things on occasion...but usually you'll find her running down the sidewalk barefooted, waving a princess wand, and screaming at the top of her lungs that she is an invisible ninja. And I wouldn't change a single thing about her.
HOWEVER  -  this invisible ninja child of mine also knows no fear. She proved this by trying to jump a curb on her bicycle. She crashed (HARD) on her face. The following photo was taken 3 days after the wreck:

It looks like I have been beating my child. But I haven't. Besides, it's kinda hard to beat an invisible ninja... they are extremely hard to catch.
