MOTHERHOOD AND OTHER THINGS.

1. WE ALL STAYED UP LATE TONIGHT (THAT’S A BIG DEAL IN OUR HOUSE…WE EVEN PLAYED CANDY LAND!!) YAY!! WHILE WE WERE GETTING READY TO PLAY, DYLAN LOOKED UP AT ME AND GIGGLED AND SAID, “YOU’RE SHORT”…..I REPLIED, “HEY, WHAT MADE YOU SAY THAT TO ME? WHO TOLD YOU TO SAY THAT?”….HE SAID, “NOBODY TOLD ME, I LOOKED AT YOU. YOU’RE SHORT!”. HAHAHA. IT’S TRUE. BUT HE’S STILL SHORTER, SO FAR.
2. I HAD HIM PRACTICE READING SENTENCES TODAY OUT OF OUR MCGUFFEY READERS. WE DID IT RIGHT BEFORE BEDTIME. HE NAILED EVERY WORD, I WAS SO PROUD!! HE FELL ASLEEP ON ME, SO ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES LATER (BECAUSE WHO WANTS TO PUT THEIR BABY IN BED WHEN THEY’RE ASLEEP ON YOU? THAT’S THE SWEETEST THING IN THE WORLD!)…I PUT HIM IN BED. HE WAS OUT. I TUCKED HIM IN AND I HEARD HIM SAY SOMETHING, I KEPT LISTENING AND HE WAS SAYING, “H-H-HUT”. ALL THE WHILE, REMAINING FAST ASLEEP. HAHAHA. THAT’S JUST TOO CUTE.
3. I GOT NEW BRAS THE OTHER DAY. MAN, I’M MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE. AND THEY’RE PRETTY, TOO.
4. OUR CLOSEST FRIENDS FROM OKLAHOMA CAME TO VISIT US THIS WEEK, AND IT WAS SO AMAZING. WE ALL HAD SO MUCH FUN. I WAS PRETTY EMOTIONAL WHEN THEY LEFT. WE HAVE BEEN MISSING THEM SINCE WE LEFT OKLAHOMA. ANYHOW, THEIR LITTLEST ONE IS A GIRL, AND DYLAN KEPT EITHER GIVING HER TOYS OR HITTING HER. SO ONE TIME I TOOK HIM ASIDE AGAIN TO DISCIPLINE HIM, I SAID, “WHY ON EARTH ARE YOU HITTING THAT LITTLE GIRL?”….HE LOOKED AT ME WITH BIG, SAD EYES AND SAID, “BECAUSE I LIKE HER!”….. AWE, PUPPYLOVE.
5. THE LORD GIVETH AND THE LORD TAKETH AWAY…….WE WERE BLESSED WITH A WONDERFUL SUMMER JOB, LOTS OF EXTRA MONEY. BUT IT WAS CUT WAAAAAAAAAY SHORT. DARRYL WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE IT UNTIL THE END OF AUGUST. BUT IT ENDED THIS WEEK. NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT, BUT IT STILL STINKS. WE WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO ACTUALLY “GETTING AHEAD” FOR ONCE. SUCH IS LIFE. PLEASE PRAY FOR US. I’D APPRECIATE IT.
6. I HAD SUCH AN AMAZING TIME WITH KELI. WE WERE JUST TALKING AND TALKING AND STAYING UP UNTIL WAAAAAAAY TOO LATE. AND OF COURSE, DARRYL AND ZACK WERE EITHER BLOWING UP FIREWORKS OR PLAYING XBOX. SO, THEY “BONDED” TOO, I GUESS. GUYS ARE HILARIOUS.
7. MY DADDY’S COMING TOMORROW!!!!!!! YAY!!!!! I LOVE THAT MEXICAN MAN SO MUCH, AND I WISH HE’D GO AHEAD AND MOVE HERE!!!
8. I CANNOT PUT INTO WORDS HOW MUCH I’VE BEEN MISSING MY FRIENDS WHO WE LIVE AWAY FROM. I WISH I COULD SEE YOU ALL, IT’S PRETTY LONELY OUT HERE AT TIMES. HOPEFULLY MY SISTER AND HER FAMILY ARE COMING TOMORROW, THAT’D BE AWESOME.
9. WE WATCHED WALL-E LAST WEEKEND, IT WAS VERY, VERY GOOD. DYLAN CRACKED UP THROUGH THE WHOLE THING. AND THE MESSAGE OF THE MOVIE WAS GREAT. ALSO, DARRYL AND I SAW THE NEW HULK MOVIE. VERY IMPRESSIVE. LOVED IT. (WE HAD FOUR FREE MOVIE TICKETS, HENCE THE MOVIE-GOING.)
10. WE LIVE NEAR A DRIVE IN, AND I CAN’T WAIT TO GO BACK TO SEE ANOTHER FLICK. I JUST LIKE THE FEELING OF WATCHING A MOVIE IN YOUR VEHICLE IN THE HOT WEATHER, SWATTING ALL THE BUGS…..AH, SUMMER FUN. HOPE EVERYONE’S ENJOYING THEIR SUMMER.
