Statement and Reports

Statement of the week, maybe the month, and perhaps even the year. Said by my daughter:

"Mom, now I have two brothers just like you. We should adopt two girls and then I would also have two sisters and really be just like you."

Needless to say I didn't have much of a response except for a nervous giggle and a muttered, "Now that would be something!"

For the record:

I received my first baby initiated kiss this weekend... open mouthed slobber and all. It was worth every wet piece of it.

My morning report for today:

Three children and myself up, fed, dressed and out the door by 8 this morning with my hubby already gone for work. Two kids to school, groceries and a load of laundry already done. Signs of hope that the new schedule with a baby in the house is finally coming together!

I LOVE those kisses!!! One of the very few parts of babyhood that I miss. Although yours is at the age where I actually like the baby. :o) Not that I DON'T like babies, but, well, hopefully you know what I mean.

Umm, I did not know that was possible! The getting out of the door by 8 I mean. Really? Did you have to start at 4AM?

Wow!

I am totally amazed and thoroughly impressed!

And baby kisses! Oh, too much and too sweet!

You are making wonderful progress dear one. The Lord often puts you on my heart. I'm praying He will knit you together with strong cords of love - everyone in your precious family.
I love the quote from Beth Moore.

Congrats on the newest member. Im behind in my blog reading, and didnt realize.
I was wondering if you can help me out with something...a long time ago you mentioned your family was reading a book(or series) with your kids...you would talk about how your hubby would take your daughter out, and you..your son, and help them learn the proper ways of acting..etc..i was wondering if you recall the title of tat/those books?
If not thats ok too..i was just wondering...
Happy Easter!
