Some thoughts to remember . . .


OK, so you know how we all have a running dialogue in our heads our heads all day long? Not just me, right? Well, every so often phrases pop into my head, sorta like when I sing that one certain Christmas hymn and can't help but sing "In Egg Shells and Mayo" on the last line. These are some phrases that just pop into my head all day long when the situation arises.


Being Pecked to Death by Chickens: What my kids do to Grandma every time she walks down stairs. Here in this photo the girls are both saying "come Grandma" and going in opposite directions. The Grabbing Hands Grab All They Can (with accompanying music): What Andrew does to my face anytime I hold him. Also when he's going for the spoon I'm trying to feed him with.

Kangaroos on Crack: My kids, especially James, when they're in wild mode. They just start going crazy, pulling open drawers, turning over furniture, banging things, laughing manically. Also Kate first thing in the morning. Kate goes from asleep to bouncing off walls in 0.2 seconds. Seminary is going to be a breeze for this girl. Clara on the other hand--we'll have to start waking her up somewhere in the middle of the night.
The Wailing and Gnashing of Teeth: Mostly when all my kids are crying at the same moment. Especially when it involves reciprocal biting between the twins.
