Frist, the funny things they say...
If any of your kids watch special Agent Oso, you will appreciate this. Kaeleb had a bowl of food on the counter which he was finished with and was about to take to the sink when he lost his balance. Food went flying everywhere. He looked at me, waiting for a reaction. For some reason, this time I did not react with my usual "Oh Kaeleb!! Pick it up now!" I simply stared at him, waiting to see what he would do next. He smiled slyly and said "It's all part of the plan-- more or less. OOPS!"
I love to listen to Brenny talk, because he still doesn't say the C or G sounds and things sound so funny. While looking out the back window I said to Brennan, "We are going to get a backyard there soon, won't that be fun?" He said "NO! You tan't! Dat is my darden!" I said "Your garden? What, your weed garden?" "Yeah, my weed and dirt darden."
And, the funny things they do...
Kaeleb won a trophy at Iddy Biddy basketball. He was sooo excited. He said "My first trophy!" He carried it around all the next day and made a spot for it on his shelf. He said "It's gold because I did my very best, right? If I only did sorta my best it would be silver, and if I didn't do much of my best it would be bronze."
Kaeleb came running to me shouting, I need my dinosaur costume!" I said, "Kaeleb, you were three when you wore it. It is too small." "No, mom!" he replied, "It will fit." So, I relented, and it was a bit small, but it still zipped. Then Brennan piped up, "I need my tiger costume!" to which I laughed-- "Ok, so Kaeleb can squeeze into the costume he wore when he was three, but you were only 6 weeks old when you wore this. You couldn't even fit it on one leg." Well, he insisted, and as you will see, he did fit it on one leg. Two legs even. My how they grow. They played Dawn of the Dinosaurs for hours that day.
We had the Millers over for FHE and Kwint was in charge of the lesson... We were well entertained by Captain Moroni with his Title of Liberty, Nephi with his broken bow, and Ammon with his sword.
As far as the grown ups go, we are busy getting ready to move. Kwint is organizing his caseload and putting things in order to move his practice and I am cleaning out closets and dejunking. It is my favorite thing to do. I get a little too excited about throwing things away, actually. We are still praying for the miracle of our home selling, but also trying to think of "creative" investment ideas for plan B. It is a wee bit overwhelming, but we feel right about it and so the Lord will prepare the way...
