The Chanoli Blog

With a little favorable providence, this blog will be a study in the exploits of three adventurous children as narrated by us, their parents who are lovingly aliased as Mama and Papa Chanoli. Our little ones will be referred to collectively as Chanoli, since that word abbreviates all three of their names together. Individually we will refer to them As Chuckles, Giggles, and Silliness. See below for a better understanding of who those names refer to.)

Mama Chanoli is the love of my wife. She endures all the challenges that every stay-at-home mother of three faces and manages to tolerate me while keeping our home, and still finding time to make me remember why I fell in love with her in the first place. First and foremost, she is living proof that God is merciful, because He has given me more than I ever could have asked for in a good wife.

Now for the characters in our story:

Chuckles is our almost 4 year old son who thinks everything on earth that fits in your hand is somehow capable of launching a projectile. If it shoots, has a sword, or is in any way related to horses, he'll be paying attention.


Giggles is our 2 1/2 year old Daughter. She is truly a princess whose largest concerns in life are what color she is wearing today and which part of her body her imagination just injured. She's also the cuddly one in the family, if you can get her to sit still for more than 15 seconds.


Silliness just plain IS a cartoon character. She's our youngest daughter at just over 1 year old, but as far as she's concerned, the world is hers to toy with. She has her brother and sister in training and is working very hard to train Mama and Papa as well.

We'll look forward to seeing how this whole blog concept turns out.

More than likely this blog will be posted too rarely at best, but on the odd occasion we might get the mood to update family and friends or wax eloquent. We'll see how it turns out.

Call it a test of sorts.

God Bless,
Papa Chanoli
