The Gone Tooth

Yesterday morning, Jack woke up discovering his loose tooth was gone. We were afraid that he had swallowed it, but luckily, we found it in his bed. And, it just so happened that the letter of the week for show-and-tell at Mother's Day Out was "T". So we packed up that little pearly tooth in a ziploc and sent it in his backpack. He called all of his grandparents and told them, "I have a gone tooth!" The toothfairy snuck into his room last night, trailing little white pixie-dust footprints, and left $5.00. (Inflation, you know.)

I need your undivided attention...please

Birthday Wishes

So the countdown begins until Jack's birthday. He's counting in weeks now. Only 5 more. He decided this morning that he'd like to make his birthday list. He drew pictures for the things he wants. So cute, I had to share. :)

A Happy Working Song

We're having a wedding shower here at our house tonight. I've been cleaning all day. I even turned on A Happy Working Song from Enchanted on my ipod hoping some little friendly animals would come through the doors and windows and help me. Didn't happen.

Grandparents are better

Why do kids love their grandparents so much? I really think Jack would, at times, prefer to live with them instead of us. All day long, I hear... "I want to live at PawPaw and Grandmama's house...Grandmama ALWAYS has pears for me." Or... "Can we have a treehouse like Nana and Poppy's? Okay, since we don't have any trees, I'll just go live with them." And... "I just REALLY want to live at the beach house with Big Mama today." Not complaining one bit, just realizing how blessed we are.
