March 7, 2011  Brooke was practicing her spelling words, Seth WAS writing the letters for the sounds he has learned to read and Luke was not really wanting to get his hands dirty.                                                                                                     

March 26, 2011  When each of the kids turned two we started taking them on Saturday morning dates to eat donuts.  I would take Seth one week and Josh would take Brooke the next week.  When Luke turned two in March we decided to start something new.  Now Josh and I take turns taking each of them.  So that way we get to spend time alone with each of them.  This was Luke's first time to go on an "outing".  We didn't want to call it a date.  I think he felt pretty special.  We want each of them to know how very special they are.

A fun day at the Fort Worth Zoo.  Thank you Maw Maw and Paw Paw for our zoo passes. 

Last week I looked out and there they were all on the front porch of their house.  They told me they were eating dinner...grass and dirt that they had put in the wheel barrow.
Last week a conversation at lunch started like this...

Brooke said, "Hey, mom you know that Bud Light commercial?"  Then she described it to me.  It was something about a girl doing something and blah, blah, blah.  I didn't hear all that she was describing.  I was thinking oh man, this is funny.  Then I asked her what Bud Light is.  She told me it is like kool-aid or something.  So then I told them it was alcohol and Daddy and I didn't want them to really drink any and how you can make bad decisions when you drink it and if you drive after you drink it you could go to jail.  So they decided it was POISON and it was not a good idea to drink any of THAT.  
Who knew dandelions could be so pretty?  I sure do love them when sweet little hands pick them for me.  This Spring Luke has picked a few too.  He usually grabs the top of them and you get what you get, leaves, grass and a smashed dandelion.  Seth has given me more this year too.  I think they might be my new favorite flower.
Seth's random breakfast conversations....Hey mom, I'll meet you in heaven. 

He ate his toast and eggs and then asked for some Crispix cereal.  He said I'm really in to that (Crispix cereal that is).
