We HONESTLY have the WEIRDEST kids ever!

No really, we do. Talon comes downstairs hollering that RéAnna just sprayed him with the spray bottle that we use for animal control. There's water on his face and shirt, in his hair. Legitimate compaint... or so it would seem!

So, we holler for RéAnna to come to us so that we can talk. Well, RéAnna explains how Talon WANTED her to spray him and asked her to squirt him in the mouth and that when she did he moved and shook his head side to side spritzing him all over his face! So, then he says, "I'm telling Dad!"

So, Daddy says to Talon, "Well, you didn't tell us about all of that."

Then the girls (Alyssa was over, too) proceed to pour out all of the things that Talon's been doing... "He's been pulling my hair!" Talon replies, "No, I didn't! My hand got stuck in her hair!" / "He kicked me!" Talon replies, "No, I did not. I laid my foot on your shoulder!"

So, then, my husband and I can't hold back our laughter, which makes Talon mad b/c he thinks we're laughing at him (which we are really) and he in a very calm tone says... "Well, I've decided that I'm going to move into another house."


Oh, yeah. I forgot to mention that as we were giggling and Talon was sulking all of the sudden I see Lucifer coming in from the Living Room soaking wet, looking terrible, shaking each paw as she lifted it off of the ground. I said, "What happened to Lucy?!" and then, RéAnna (in the most natural tone) says, "Oh yeah. I gave Lucy a bath." Uuuhhh, would you please stop bathing the cats! They're good, really! They're already static-e enough! We should have got a gold fish!

Almost Monday

Oooohhh... My weekend has whizzed by. Really the entire week has flown by really fast. We had company from Virginia come up and visit us last weekend (we had a blast- they're great peeps!). They left Monday, but it took all week to get back into my routine. Don't know why. My heart just hasn't been into doing what I know that I need to do. Behind in laundry, bills, studying, dishes - chores in general, blah! Well, it may help if the weather would stay somewhat warmer and stop raining and being all cloudy. I don't want to complain too much, though. My plants are sprouting up everywhere and my grass is growing that I planted a couple of weeks ago.

So, preping for the week... Get all of the kids outfits out and ironed for the week. Laundry. Dishes. Have to open enroll Talon Wednesday morning for Possum (I want to be there at like 6:45a to make sure we're the first to arrive. They open at 7a and last year the lady said they didn't take any for K b/c they had their limit of kids, so I'm hoping that if there's a spot or two for 1st grade he'll be the first to get in...). Preschool Transition Committee is Wednesday @ 3:30 and I'm supposed to go out in service with Dawn in the am. I need to work on Ré's talk on the 16th of April.

UGH! One last breathe and then I'll get started...
