Tabasco sauce for lying- maybe not a good idea!!!

So I gave Annabelle some Tabasco sauce for lying to me. Not a huge deal. Just a little teeny bit on her tongue. I thought it would be better than soap which can be potentially toxic. So after a fuss, I got it on her tongue. Do you know what she asked me after? "Am I going to die?" So I am now one of the worst mothers ever!!! I feel so bad. The fact that she thought I would give her something that would make her die just makes me want to curl up and die myself. She is so sweet and tender. I try to remember that she thinks just a little deeper than my other children. She is always asking questions about everything, wants to know about everything. I think that she will no longer be lying to me though!!!! The girls started gymnastics this last week and loved it!!! Anna does cartwheels everywhere. They both love it more than dance so they'll stay in it as long as they want. Stephen is feeling a little left out so he has decided to try boxing. Trevor is feeling pretty darn good. The fact that his son is so boy-ish makes him sooooo happy. I know that you grandparents probably dont like the idea of boxing- im not sure yet if I do myself- we'll see what happens!!!

I know you were picturing Kase when you were talking about Stephen being so boyish! He is getting better I promise!

I can't believe they even have boxing for kids that small. How funny! I hope that we get to see one of his boxing matches some time.

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
