Ho-Hum Home: And still the punctual snow

And still the punctual snow

NEW feet within my garden go,
New fingers stir the sod;
A troubadour upon the elm
Betrays the solitude.

New children play upon the green,
New weary sleep below;
And still the pensive spring returns,
And still the punctual snow!
- New feet within my garden go -- Emily Dickinson

The Residents of Ho-Hum Drive

Erica - aka Eri aka Mama aka Buttercup: Full time home-maker. Loves the Midwest, cows, windchimes, Justin boots, pink Chuck Taylors and country music. Barefootin-gun lovin-pro life-laid back redneck girl. Politically somewhere to the right of Rush.

Nathan - aka Stomp aka Kidlet aka Bubba: Eri's oldest son. A third grader who loves video games, dogs, dinosaurs, Star Wars, legos, splashing and gettin dirty. Loves reading (especially Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Captain Underpants and The Hobbit) and is already better at math than Mama. Loves apples, popsicles, watermelon and anything that he deems "absurd".

Joshua - aka Joshie: Eri's "baby". Born 7/2/11 weighing 8lbs and measuring 21.25 inches. A funny and silly little blonde-haired-blue-eyed monster that we jokingly call the Giant Mutant Ninja Baby because of his ability to eat his body weight in fish sticks and to scale the furniture. Already a chatterbox (wonder where he gets THAT from) who loves to babble, laugh, dance, clap and eat.

Mr. Wonderful - Eri's significant other. Called "Mr. Wonderful" for a reason.

Mike - aka The Viking. Eri's ex husband and father of the boys.

Shelby - aka Shelbs aka Shelby of Flop aka Shelbradoodle: 6 year old Basset Hound/German Shepard. Sadly now living with "Grandma and Grandpa". We miss her.
