We had a great day yesterday. The kids painted while I made fresh play dough.
As we were preparing to paint, a multitude of messes occurred. And, with out getting frustrated (I've been working really hard not to freak out about stuff.), I helped clean up and re-organize.
I was walking away from the table to get a rag when Es (7 1/2) said "It's hard to have kids sometimes." I said "Yeah it is. But it's also lots of fun." Sam (6 1/2) then chimed in "Yeah, cause you can wrestle with them!" Funny thing is; I'm not even the one that wrestles with them! But that time with Ben is unanimously the favorite activity of all the kids. Thanks for beeing a great Dad, Ben!
Anyway, just a little snap shot of my day. Hope your week-end is fabulous!
The picture was taken day before yesterday. The heroes were protecting Cinderella, hence their tough expressions! Sam-Batman, Zach-Robin, Joey-Superman. Consequently they are their favorite characters.

All in a day's work for the best of superhero's! Cinderella looks pleased and protected! I was at curves this morning working out and the ladies were talking about a lady in their neighborhood, whose house looks like it's decorated right out of the 50's. In other words, nothing's been changed for 50 years. She even still has her old black rotor phone and original couch. Someone said, no kids? The person sharing said, yes, no kids, no pets. Someone else said, wow, what a dream! But I said, No kids, no pets..... NO FUN! Love you, Mom
I could do w/o the pet part of my life right now! I've recently discovered that I'm not really a fluffy pet person. Now, goldfish don't sound so bad:) Katy
The picture is too cute. I so wish I could get my pictures off the camera. Someday I will be able to post cute pictures of my kids too.
Maybe Lucy can be a "shop" dog. Ben could take her with him to work???
From your mouth to God's ears, Brigit! He could sometimes take the dog, but rarely. Good idea!
Katy-
I too love the picture - your house is full of fun! And, as they say, kids say the darndest things! :)
Out of the mouth of babes! Too funny! She is wise beyond her years. Wrestling is also among the favorite activites of our boys. And I am so with you on the pet thing.
