A Few Points At Day’s Start:

1. It grieves me that I now have to click “big girls” when I shop for Little online.

2. Bubba started his meds yesterday. They say it will take 3-5 weeks for it to take affect and then it might have a reverse affect – – more hyper activity. “Dear Jesus, please no. Amen.”

3. I don’t think KB’s tummy can handle another antibiotic. She is “monkey” free for the first time in 2010 and we are grateful. I’m going to go get pickled garlic asap. (monkey = phlegm)

4. It is 6:48 AM and Little is in her room singing “Hark the Herald Angels Sing” at the top of her lungs. I LOVE when she gets enough sleep. (5:45 AM today!)

5. These days KB’s favorite songs at bedtime are the Veggie Tales theme song and the Backyardigans theme song. Thursday night I sang the song while she giggled and grinned and then she said, “I luf that song.” I luf her!

6. Bubba wants to sing “Our God is an Awesome God” every night. Together. If I start without him, he puts his hand over my mouth and says, “No! Together. Again.” Yes sir!

Dot to Dot

If necessity is the mother of invention then impatience is the brother! Tired of waiting for his mamma to get his dot-to-dot book, Bubba drew his own.

Little got a pack of gum for her birthday.

When she was three I told her she could chew gum when she was 6 . . . I was trying to get her off my case and figured three years was long enough for her to forget the conversation. FAT CHANCE! She has reminded me almost weekly for three years that, “I get to chew gum when I’m six.” When she opened the bag with the gum she said, “Dad! It’s gum because I am six!”

I slowly explained to her that gum is for chewing but not swallowing (she kept giggling). I said that she should chew it until the flavor is gone and then spit it into the trash. That made her laugh too.

She put a piece in her mouth, made a terrible face as she chewed:

and then made a strained look as she. . . swallowed it:
Maybe we should try again when she’s seven.
