It's been a while...

So Lissy is making me feel bad -- she's updated her blog.  Guess I need to get on it.  It's not that I don't think about it, it's just hard to find a free minute.  Always something else jumps in front of it, and then by evening, I'm just not ready to START on something after the kids are finally in bed (which in summer is pretty late these days).  Maybe I can set a goal to start updating --- I really don't want to let all the memories slip away, but sometimes it may happen.  We'll see.  I do have pictures, so maybe I'll start with that.

Cinderella and the Prince

Today Anne was asking to listen to music.  She asked to listen to the song Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman.  I was going to start it, but for a moment I blanked on who the artist was.  I said, "Who is that?"  Anne replied, "Cinderella, Mom."  I said, "Yes, I know, but who sings it?"  Her sure reply, "a prince."  Why wouldn't the song "Cinderella" be sung by a prince?

OK, so I have to admit I'm excited about this

So Leyton is slightly following in my footsteps!  He won the local free throw contest recently and gets to go on to districts.  He made 12 out of 15.  I may have actually been a little more excited than he was! Hee hee.

The Luckiest Lady

Anne and I sometimes play the game with saying "I love you."  She'll say she loves me, I tell her I love her.  Then one of us will say, "I love you more."  And it goes on, more, more, more, etc.  then sometimes she says, "I love you a million million million million (...lots of times she says it)."  Then I'll say, "Wow, that's really a lot!" And her reply, "You must be a lucky lady!"  If she only knew how true!

Time saver

Oh the time I would gain if a certain two year old didn't constantly take off all her clothes!  I have to dress that girl too many times a day. She made a few people chuckle at Costco today when she said she had to go potty and so she just pulled down her pants.  God help me.

Finally getting some hair = barrette!!
