Really?

Rhya found two pipe cleaners and informed me that she'd be attaching them to my headband, which would result in 'bunny ears'. The rest afternoon and evening I was a bunny. The lawn mower didn't know the difference and neither did the milk cow. :-) I decided that they should come out for gospel mtg that evening!

For the past 2 weeks Brielle has insisted that she's actually named Weston. Every few hours she reminds us: "Remember now, I'm Weston!!" I have no idea how she chose this name! She must like it. :-)


Nate has been having a bit of frustration at work. It's nothing serious, but he has stories about a certain co-worker every now and then. Tonight at bedtime Rhya said, "I don't want to go to bed. I want to hike the hill to the apple trees." Nate explained that 10:15 was a very late time for kids to get to bed. She said, "Fine then, I'm going to call you ____!" (using the name of the guy Nate's been venting about)
She has never even commented when we've been talking about ____ but obviously her ears area always in tune!! (reminds me of niece Kylie)

We had a 'family day' at 4YK today. Rhya's teacher had lots of funny stories of how observant Rhya is. A while back Rhya pointed out that Mrs. Coulson always swallows while turning the page of the book she's reading. Guess what Mrs. Coulson notices now EVERY time she turns the page? Ha!!!
Also, evidently Rhya makes note EVERY time Mrs. Coulson has her hair different.
I've also learned that there's a substitute who always raises her big toe when she's sitting on a chair talking to the class. :-)

Whenever Brielle is going to do something for a long time she says, "ALL day morning!!"
Example: "I'm going to keep my undies dry ALL DAY MORNING!!"


Dust If You Must 

Author Unknown  

 
Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better,
To paint a picture or write a letter,
Bake a cake or plant a seed,
Ponder the difference between want and need?

Dust if you must, but there's not much time,
With rivers to swim and mountains to climb,
Music to hear and books to read,
Friends to cherish and life to lead.

Dust if you must, but the world's out there
With the sun in your eyes, the wind in your hair,
A flutter of snow, a shower of rain.
This day will not come 'round again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it's not always kind.
And when you go and go you must,
You, yourself, will make more dust.
