A missionary was speaking in church, and I leaned over to Moses,
Are you going to be a missionary when you get older, Moses?
(That's something a good mom would ask, right? Not a cloying mom?)
And Moses was instantly irritated.
I'm a kid missionary NOW, Mom!Whoops.
Herbie and Moses got to visit some neighbors who take their slip-n-slide much more seriously than we do.
Ruby started a bottle cap collection and invented a game to be played with them.
You may think that Ruby's about to take out the recycling. Don't be fooled. That's a robot of her own invention.
Penelope is now more comfortable on the go. She seems to be a little nervous sitting still for a picture.
And she doesn't stay there long.
Linus had hand, foot and mouth disease this week, and was not a happy camper for a lot of the week.
Having his picture taken made him really mad.
Ruby (reading the back of something): It's made in China.My favorite place!
Me: Oh yeah??
Herbie: My favorite place is California!
Ruby: Mine's really Arizona ...
Moses: Mine's Disneyland!
They've never been to any of those places. But speaking of travel, Woo tracked himself mowing the lawn.
I think he was trying to see how far he was walking mowing our 1/2 acre of lawn. It didn't turn out to be very accurate. As you can see, it looks like he mowed through our house.
And lastly, did your kids leave some shoes in the park? Because my kids found them.
