Thanks Lacey for letting us hang out at your house! The kids had a blast playing with cars and watching the movie Cars, (Justin's favorite movie of all time.) Justin told me afterward that he had fun and loved the cupcakes, (sprinkles are his favorite.)

It is so great, thanks Deanna!<br /><br />WHY GOD MADE MOMS. Hope you have a good laugh...Answers given by 2<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">nd</span> grade school children to the following questions:<br /><br />Why did God make mothers?<br />1. She's the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.<br />2. Mostly to clean the house .<br />3. To help us out when we were getting born.<br /><br />How did God make mothers?<br />1. He used dirt, just like for the rest of us.<br />2. Magic plus super powers and a lot of stirring.<br />3. God made my Mom just the same like he made me. He just used bigger parts<br /><br />What ingredients are mothers made of ?<br />1. God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.<br />2. They had to get their start from men's bones. Then they mostly use string, I think.<br /><br />Why did God give you your mother and not some other mom?<br />1. We're related.<br />2. God knew she likes me a lot more than other <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">people's moms</span> like me..<br /><br />What kind of little girl was your mom?<br />1. My Mom has always been my mom and none of that other stuff.<br />2. I don't know because I wasn't there, but my guess would be pretty bossy.<br />3. They say she used to be nice.<br /><br />What did mom need to know about dad before she married him?<br />1. His last name.<br />2. She had to know his background. Like is he a crook? Does he get drunk on beer?<br />3. Does he make at least $800 a year? Did he say NO to drugs and YES to chores?<br /><br />Why did your mom marry your dad?<br />1. My dad makes the best spaghetti in the world. And my Mom eats a lot.<br />2. She got too old to do anything else with him.<br />3. My grandma says that Mom didn't have her thinking cap on.<br /><br />Who's the boss at your house?<br />1. Mom doesn't want to be boss, but she has to because dad's such a goof ball.<br />2. Mom. You can tell by room inspection. She sees the stuff under the bed.<br />3. I guess Mom is, but only because she has a lot more to do than dad.<br /><br />What's the difference between moms & dads?<br />1. Moms work at work and work at home and dads just go to work at work.<br />2. Moms know how to talk to teachers without scaring them.<br />3. Dads are taller & stronger, but moms have all the real power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at your friend's.<br />4. Moms have magic, they make you feel better without medicine.<br /><br />What does your mom do in her spare time?<br />1. Mothers don't do spare time.<br />2. To hear her tell it, she pays bills all day long.<br /><br />What would it take to make your mom perfect?<br />1. On the inside she's already perfect. Outside, I think some kind of plastic surgery.<br />2. Diet. You know, her hair. I'd diet, maybe blue.<br /><br />If you could change one thing about your mom, what would it be?<br />1. She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean. I'd get rid of that.<br />2. I'd make my mom smarter. Then she would know it was my sister who did it and not me.<br />3. I would like for her to get rid of those invisible eyes on the back of her head.Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09522512447017607824noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4534681786426970897.post-92055598148453370112009-03-27T08:03:00.000-07:002009-03-28T22:53:56.265-07:00We Have The Cutest Kids Ever!<span style="font-family:arial;font-size:130%;color:#663333;"><strong>We <em>so</em> have the cutest kids ever!

Inside I'm thinking, 'Can't you see I'm on the phone?' Obviously, not. No one can see if I'm on the phone, or cooking, or sweeping the floor, or even standing on my head in the corner, because no one can see me at all. I'm invisible. The invisible Mom. Some days I am only a pair of hands, nothing more: Can you fix this? Can you tie this? Can you open this? Some days I'm not a pair of hands; I'm not even a human being. I'm a clock to ask, 'What time is it?' I'm a satellite guide to answer, 'What number is the Disney Channel?' I'm a car to order, 'Right around 5:30, please.' I was certain that these were the hands that once held books and the eyes that studied history and the mind that graduated sum a cum laude - but now they had disappeared into the peanut butter, never to be seen again. She's going; she's going; she is gone! <br /><br />One night, a group of us were having dinner, celebrating the return of a friend from England .. Janice had just gotten back from a fabulous trip, and she was going on and on about the hotel she stayed in. I was sitting there, looking around at the others all put together so well. It was hard not to compare and feel sorry for myself. I was feeling pretty pathetic, when Janice turned to me with a beautifully wrapped package, and said, 'I brought you this.' It was a book on the great cathedrals of Europe . I wasn't exactly sure why she'd given it to me until I read her inscription: <br /><br />'To My Dear Friend, with admiration for the greatness of what you are building when no one sees.' In the days ahead I would read - no, devour - the book. And I would discover what would become for me, four life-changing truths, after which I could pattern my work: <br /><br />No one can say who built the great cathedrals - we have no record of their names. These builders gave their whole lives for a work they would never see finished. They made great sacrifices and expected no credit. The passion of their building was fueled by their faith that the eyes of God saw everything. A legendary story in the book told of a rich man who came to visit the cathedral while it was being built, and he saw a workman carving a tiny bird on the inside of a beam. He was puzzled and asked the man, 'Why are you spending so much time carving that bird into a beam that will be covered by the roof? No one will ever see it.' And the workman replied, 'Because God sees' <br /><br />I closed the book, feeling the missing piece fall into place. It was almost as if I heard God whispering to me, 'I see you. I see the sacrifices you make every day, even when no one around you does. No act of kindness you've done, no sequin you've sewn on, no cupcake you've baked, is too small for me to notice and smile over. You are building a great cathedral, but you can't see right now what it will become.' At times, my invisibility feels like an affliction. But it is not a disease that is erasing my life. It is the cure for the disease of my own self-centeredness. It is the antidote to my strong, stubborn pride. I keep the right perspective when I see myself as a great builder. As one of the people who show up at a job that they will never see finished, to work on something that their name will never be on. <br /><br />The writer of the book went so far as to say that no cathedrals could ever be built in our lifetime because there are so few people willing to sacrifice to that degree. When I really think about it, I don't want my son to tell the friend he's bringing home from college for Thanksgiving, 'My Mom gets up at 4 in the morning and bakes homemade pies, and then she hand bastes a turkey for three hours and presses all the linens for the table.' That would mean I'd built a shrine or a monument to myself. I just want him to want to come home. And then, if there is anything more to say to his friend, to add, 'you're going to love it there.' <br /><br />As mothers, we are building great cathedrals. We cannot be seen if we're doing it right. And one day, it is very possible that the world will marvel, not only at what we have built, but at the beauty that has been added to the world by the sacrifices of invisible women.Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09522512447017607824noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4534681786426970897.post-22591098492596702422009-01-29T14:06:00.000-08:002009-03-09T17:08:15.121-07:00Alexander SocktopusHere is the Alexander socktopus.

Hope to see you all then!Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09522512447017607824noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4534681786426970897.post-15041760865854096652008-12-23T00:52:00.000-08:002008-12-28T22:03:00.216-08:00Merry Christmas Ladies!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTruw4D_ae8LruTPkcbMe5ZEEn_r80mZIICHv_U1VLPh9auRbbZrOpH-ZTIAggl6UMQ-WpQiMyn7P1ZHAER1JynhvU4-vdc2lRRcrmZrHbVS2IPc4wIeX2gvYlCW6eCP30aV89SejSRS2v/s1600-h/chris2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285088215880864690" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTruw4D_ae8LruTPkcbMe5ZEEn_r80mZIICHv_U1VLPh9auRbbZrOpH-ZTIAggl6UMQ-WpQiMyn7P1ZHAER1JynhvU4-vdc2lRRcrmZrHbVS2IPc4wIeX2gvYlCW6eCP30aV89SejSRS2v/s320/chris2.JPG" border="0" /></a> Hi Ladies!

I thought it would be fun to use pics from the performance we were in - 'Twas the Night Before Christmas." The greeting is a line from the poem. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas with your families!</div><br /><div>~April</div></div></div></div>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09522512447017607824noreply@blogger.com0
