A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

Justin - it's all about me time!

Tonight I took Nic to mutual and left Justin home with Alex as he did not have to work. I decided to stay in the car at church and read as it was too far away to make it worthwhile to drive back home, ahh, cherished quiet reading time...

Justin was all excited because daddy was going to "Babysit". When Nic babysit's we tell him that it is all about Justin time, he is to watch Justin and play what Justin wants as that is what happens when you babysit.

So... Justin is totally excited as mommy is going out and daddy is "babysitting". He tells daddy, it's all about me time daddy you have to do what ever I say!
I do believe we have created a monster.

Poor Alex is still wondering when a "daddy" became a babysitter. But in good sport he trailed after Justin and played video games and with toys. When I came home Justin was all happy but very concerned his room was a mess, before he went to bed he made me promise we would clean his room in the morning. He takes after his mom who believes everything has a place and should be in it. Love that!
