A slightly crazy 25 year old with a great husband and two wonderful kids. The only reason one would want to read my inner thoughts is complete boredom or unconditional love.

A barrage of randomness! (Mostly about the kids)

Has anyone ever had a sinus infection that would not go away? I think its set up a permanent residence in my body! The doctor may be receiving a visit from me again soon. And this time I'm going to demand some antibiotics that work!
We read The Sneetches again last night. The kids are addicted to that book now. We also read "the Easter story", as Lily refers to it, out of their kids Bible last night. It is so neat to me that they are so interested in it. When I read about Jesus being put on the cross and then about him coming back to life, you could just see the emotion in their faces. They can't really understand why the people were so cruel to Jesus (who can?) but they know "he died on the cross to save us". I love that little Bible (thanks Aunt Daphne!) because it tells the stories in words they can understand. It does a much better job than I can do. Last Sunday during Sunday school they made a "coat of many colors". They were so cute. Mrs. Julia, who taught their class, said, "it's amazing what you can do with scraps of colored paper"(haha) Its true, those scraps of paper helped tell them the story probably better than if she had just read it off a page. I'm glad for all the resources there are for kids.
Tomorrow...I take Seth and Lily to the dentist. It will be Seth's first visit and Lily's second. I'm hoping all will go well, but I'm unsure, if they put them in two separate rooms, how I'll be with both of them. Run back and forth between rooms? I'm sure the dentist and the assisstants will love that! Maybe if Jessie has a short day I can coerce him into coming along. I'm hoping it'll be warm-ish and sunny afterward so I can take them to the park. The poor kids, with the bitterly cold weather, haven't gotten to go outside and play very much lately. Well, I think Seth goes outside at school during recess, but still. Oh, and the library. We have to return our books. Looks like I'll have a full afternoon. :O
In strange news, Seth has a rodeo at school on Thursday. A rodeo?!? I guess it's because they are studying the letter "r". But it just seems weird to me...he's supposed to dress western...hmm. He has absolutely NOTHING that even resembles western-wear. I think I may take my weekly Wednesday trip to Walmart and see if I can find him a dress-up cowboy hat or something. And we have to make him a stick horse. ?!? Out of paper and newspaper. Do you think they would accept me sending the real stickhorse he has? That would be cheating huh? But it neighs! I guess I better stop complaining and get to work on ol' Silver.
