I am a wife and mother, First Mate to my Pirate Captain, Hobbes and Pirate Mum to Dak, P.I.T. , Fidget. and our little Gold Doubloon on the way. Dak is a professional league bowler and all around goofball. P.I.T. (Pirate in Training) loves anime and is a writer like me and Al. He's the only writer in the family at the moment that hasn't yet published, but he'll get there! Fidget (name is self-explanatory) loves cats and playing outside, cars, trucks and Legos. Our Gold Doubloon should arrive sometime around Beltaine 2016 and at that time receive the obligatory Pirate nickname. On my blog, Adventures of a Modern Day Pirate Mum, you'll find recipes, DIY stuff and who knows what else!
