The Joy of a 2 year-old


This is how I found Sydney tonight... "making out" with our Gingerbread house. She is so proud to have discovered that climbing onto the table means all you can eat treats. If you look closely at the mint at the front of the house, you'll notice that the stripes are gone. That is because she must have done this earlier in the day when I had the gingerbread house on my black table (I must not be watching her very closely because I didn't even know she was on that table). When I was polishing the table today, I noticed little feet prints on the table top next to where the house had been. The little foot print, Sydney size, and the missing stripes on the front mint lead to only one thing... Sydney is in love with the mints on the Gingerbread house and I need to do a better job at watching her :-).

Oh how well I remember those days of pulling kids off of everything I wonder why my favorite thing we owned was a gate that just kept the boys in the front room only.

Susan,

What a cute family you have! They are all grown up! Of course I remember you from our Milwaukee days!!! Whenever someone needs a great visiting teaching story in relief society, I quickly raise my hand and say,"there was this one time when I was pregnant, sick as can be, with a picc line in and my visiting teachers came over unannounced and dropped of A MONTH worth of food for my poor family individually wrapped into single servings!" Do you remember that? I totally do. It was like winning the lottery, only 10 times better. Glad to catch up with you and your cute family!
