Levi hates disease

Levi was riding in the back of the truck the other day and we had a conversation about disease. We were going over to Grampa Dans and Nancy was home from work in bed. She has breast cancer and she was down on her white count so we had to make sure we weren't going to be bringing any colds with us. He said to me. "I hate cancer!" I said, "Yeah, me too." He then said, "I hate leprosy too."
Yeah, thats real catchy today.

The talk

I had to have the "talk" with Jace. I was ready, prepared, prayed up, and confident. I had a couple of books and I'm so glad for that! I read the books and changed the "mommies" to mom and the "daddies" to dad and went on with the book. Who tells their kids the story of the birds and the bees when they are still calling them that is beyond me. When we got to the actual "how" babies happen he shouted out, "I am never gonna do that!" He was laughing and puzzled all at the same time and it was quite sweet, innocent, and funny. I'll never forget his face and the things he said; questions he asked. One down, two to go! Phew!

Explode The Code

This book is ridiculous! What 1st grader knows words like mob, jig, tot, hag, bog? There's more! Names in the book are like Dot, Bess, Pam, Gus, and Tex!??? What century was this book made? Where was it made? "Mom cuts logs in the hot sun?" Whose mom does this? Laura Ingalls?
My final thought? Don't buy this book for your 1st grade curriculum unless of course u live in the past!

Good quote

"I haven't always been a Christian. I didn't go to religion to make me happy. I always knew a bottle of (fill in the liquor) would do that. If you want a religion to make you feel really comfortable, I certainly do not recommend Christianity."
-CS Lewis

Goonies

You remember the Goonies right? Who doesn't remember Sloth? We were watching it at the part where Sloth saves the last of the Goonies and the scene changes right? Levi says to me, "Mom, what happened to Slut?"

Libs!

The other day Libs had a bathroom episode. Yep, they are so fun aren't they? She was trying to go "number 2" and was having some issues. She was in her room and I went in and she said. "Mom, can I take a bath? My butt is spicy."

New Book

I have just began reading this book this past week. I already recommend it. It is not a difficult read as I find most of Pipers books but it will convict. I was agreeing with Noel in the forward as she said, "the first 25 years are the hardest." I hope to learn much from this excellent book! Thanks Cbass!

Family!

A family pic-I couldn't choose so I put both on! I hope that your pictures are better than mine Dana. Let's see 'em!

In love

Levi looked pretty handsome at church this past Sunday and as I was putting his clothes away the other day I told him so. He said, "Yeah, I looked really good. Alysha fell in love with me all over again." I said, "Really?" He said, "Yeah, but it didn't last too long because then she dumped me."

Bedtime!

Libs is high maintenance at bedtime. She has to pick out her jammies, read, pray, nightlight, and mask!
