Emma-Lee and Kathleen


Kathleen is my free spirit, all faries, pixi dust, and tutus. She knows what she wants and will do what it takes to get it. She is happy to be 4, she can now behave (she says) because she is a big girl.
She has a new "school" she goes to every Thursday. We attend MOPS ( Mothers Of Pre schoolers) where she goes and has a worship and bible class for her and one for me!!She has of core wraped her teachers around her finger with her matter of fact way of speaking. I think it will help when she stars VPK next year.


Emma-Lee is my back up. She is the one getting on to Kathleen when I am not in the room. She thinks Ross is hers and she has already found a husband at the ripe old age of 5.
Being in Kindergarten has changed her a bit. She gives back more sass, But that can at least be dealt with. I hear every bad thing the other children do. She has had no problems yet, but no child is perfect, Not even mine!!

Children's minds ;)

This weekend we had places to go and it is my job to get all 3 kids, myself, and the diaper bag ready. My Husband only has to worry about himself. ( we all see where this is going) I was ready at 4:00pm and we didn't leave until 10min to 6:00pm. I was so frustrated with him that I was praying for patience and strength to get through this with out the normal bickering. Emma-Lee caught me and asked me what I was praying for. I told her Patience and strength, of coarse I didn't tell her why!! Kathleen upon hearing this decided she needed to pray. " Dear God can you give me a new pink tutu with gems on it Amen" I (trying hard not to laugh) told her she couldn't pray to God for a new tutu, that she could ask us for her birthday coming up for one. With that said I hear Emma-Lee behind me praying, " Dear God please give mommy patience to deal with Kathleen and tell her to stop asking you for a tutu Amen!"

A few weeks ago my mom called me to tell me my 2 year old nephew modified the lunch prayer I taught him. His new prayer
God our Moder, God our Moder
once again, once again
Thank you for our pudding, Thank you for our pudding
AWWWman! AWWWman
Enough Said!

Begining of school cold :(

Sorry I have been inactive. We have been all
sick. I love my Husband and children but they are the last people you want to see when your all sick !
Life is back on track now and Ross found his feet this weekend!!
He is always so happy when he learns something new. He barely slept yesterday because he was soo happy that he found a new portable toy! I miss the days when I was sooo easily amused. Heck I have 400 TV channels and can never find anything on?
I think any parent will agree, that watching your children sometimes can be more entertaining than TV. I have a few min. to myself so I am going to go clean the kitchen floor.
Love to all.
