Am I the only one, or are you all crazy busy right now?
I had so much more time to blog and get things done before, and I would have thought with it getting colder I would have more time, but it’s the opposite.
I guess with the holidays around the corner I feel the need to get everything done.
I can’t wait to put my Christmas decorations up!
How many of you have already done so?
I plan to wait until after Thanksgiving if I can hold out. 🙂
What are your children asking for this year?
Do they want all of the coolest gadgets and electronics?
Mine are asking for things like Netbooks or Laptops, cell phones, dsi xl, and so much more!
I really don’t even know who they would call with a cell phone! ha ha!
I thought I would share with you something my 5 year old said to me a couple of weeks ago…
We know someone that has a little one and is no longer married to her spouse.
My younger boys tend to think that if you have a child you have a husband. So, when they asked me where her husband was I explained to them that sometimes it doesn’t work out with people and they decide to live apart. (I explained it a lot better than that, but won’t go into the whole discussion.)
Anyway, he looks at me and says, “Oh, I get it! Like Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater! Right? He had a wife and he couldn’t keep her, so he put her in a pumpkin shell. Is that what you mean?”
Well, you have to admit, he was really thinking out of the box, and I never thought about Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater as a story of divorce, but now I think I am looking at that nursery rhyme in a whole new way. Ha ha!
I love the way kids see things!
