Kid Quote

I made dinner and my son didn’t like it.

He has asked for many other things to eat, but I told him I am not a short order cook.

His reply to me is “When you get old and forget how to use the stove, I am going to make something you don’t like!

- Lori A

Here's a good example of why you should
always check your child's homework.

"Okay, Sleeping Beauty, let's play hide and seek. I'll go ahead and count to ten first while you go hide in the castle somewhere. And no help from Flora, Fauna, or Meriweather, either! That's cheating!"

Congratulations to Ronica Stromberg on her new children's book, "The Time-for-bed Angel."

This special author entertained an audience on Sunday with the inspiration behind her latest release. Like this book's main character, Stromberg's son did not snuggle into the blankets easily every night and drift off to sleep. He needed water, wanted to rearrange stuffed animals, generally and do anything but close his eyes!

"Don't you think your guardian angel could use a break?" his exhausted mom asked.

To Ronica's surprise, there did not seem to be any children's books that featured a guardian angel for the author to reinforce that idea at the time...a challenge that, thanks to her, no longer exists for weary angels and parents alike. This book is available from Amazon and other online retailers. The photo above was taken at Lee Booksellers in Lincoln, Nebraska.


Check out this Spooky Story
by Max, age 8

Once there was a boy named Jack.

One day Jack heard the doorbell ring and he went to answer it. He opened the door and nobody was there, but there was an old paper scroll.  The scroll said to go to the old house on the hill.

So the next day he went to the old house on the hill, and he opened the creaky door.

He walked in and there was a soft voice that whispered, “Go to the basement.”

He was really scared. Jack crept to the basement, and when he was on the way down he found a newspaper laying on the stairs. The headline said, “Mysterious disappearance.” 

There was a picture of the old house on the hill. The voice came back and said, “Go to the basement.”  Jack snuck the rest of the way down the rickety old staircase. Now there was a new voice that said,” I’m going to get ya!”  

He went to turn on the lights. He flipped the old dusty switch and the light flickered on and then off. It was really dark and creepy. He backed away into the darkness and got stuck to the wall. Poor Jack was trapped in a giant spider web! Something crawled up his back and bit his neck. Jack began to fall to his knees. The last thing he heard was the voice. “I got ya, I got ya.”
