...to quote one of Tilly's favorite nursery rhymes. And you can bet we were all doing a jiggety gig when Papa finally came home. He returned from his Nicaraguan Mancation a little skinnier for not having eaten in a few days, and a lot hairier for not having shaved in several.


At breakfast I asked Matilda if she was happy to have her papa home. She said emphatically, "YEAH! Whiskers!"
So while Chace lost weight on his involuntary fast, I gained it cheating on our diet. In a nutshell, Chace got skinnier, I got fatter, and the girls? They got sassier.
