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.

Sneaking Peaks

I was an awesome sneaker at Christmas time! I knew just where the presents were kept and could peal the tape and put it back just perfect! I couldn't stand to not know! I would even bribe both my sister's Christmas morning - but mostly Kerri, to sneak downstairs and peak at the stockings and under the tree. The suspense about killed me! So I understand this natural curiousity and appetite to know what you are getting.

Well, Justin is just like me! He snuck, and in a very undaintly way unwrapped/wripped some presents - not all the way - just enough to sneak a peak. When confronted he said, "mommmmmmm", with the cutest grin - that was saying how could I not peak. Oh, I understand little boy I thought! And I controlled - just barely mind you the impulse to show him how to do it so noone would know!

I can just see that cute grin and you wanting to "help" him be a professional sneaker! My thing is that I just want an awesome surprise for someone because I always want to be surprised!!! And Alex and the butt thing, I wouldn't make him mad with that big of a needle in his hand, ha ha! Hang in there, can't wait to hear more!
