Maggie...A few Sundays ago, had a lesson on the resurection.
The teacher asked them to draw a picture what this meant to them.
This is what she drew. When I was cleaning out her church bag, I found it.
I just started crying.
What a sweet spirit filled my soul!
Thank you Maggie.

Oh, Emily... you keep my life exciting!

The other day, Emily and Katie and I walked down to our local corner store, for a treat!
While we were checking out, Emily was dancing around, being crazy, like is always does.
Well, she tripped on her own two feet, like she always does... and fell into a little display.
She was NOT happy about it. I calming asked her if she was okay, to be polite! I didn't want the clerk to think I was a bad mom, but I knew she was fine, she was playing it up, you know, like Emily does so well!
She replied, very strongly, "NO! I think I BROKE........ my heart!"
Soooo cute, and sweet, and funny!


Then, that very same day, at dinner..... Katie spilled her ICE water!
Emily was right in the path of the splash.
In SHOCK and DISBELIEF, she shouted....... "MY PANTS ARE SOOOOOO COLD!"
Then she proceeded to run down stairs as fast as she could for clean pants.
This was not a typical Emily answer. We were expecting a fit. So, this made us laugh.
Oh, my little girl is growing up! But, I'm glad we are continuing to have the Emilisms!

Yet Another Emily-ism

"Look Katie! Mom is making bikini bread!"

And it was very yummy zucchini bread, indeed!

I love my little know-it-all! Especially when she doesn't know-it-all!!

My View of Twilight

So, I watched "New Moon", finally!
I know, many of you saw this movie on the 1st day, and the rest probably saw it within the 1st month, but I didn't have any one to go it with.
All my really cool fanatic friends all went with other really cool fanatic friends, thus...
Yes, no one REALLY loves me enough to call me up and say, " Hey Lace, we are going to see "New Moon", you wanna come with?"
Any way, that was NOT the reason for this blog, sorry about getting caught up on that tangent.
Here is the reason!!!
I want to know why every one is sooooo in love with Edward.
Yes, I get the whole mysterious thing, but he's pasty white, cold to the touch, Bella can't kiss him without him wanting to bite her, and he is SKINNY! Like way to lean of muscle!
NOW..... What about that CUTE, Native BOY, JACOB!!!
Why was he hiding behind those long locks? The second I saw his hair cut, and his ripped body, no way was I thinking twice that Edward was a hunk!
Jacob is warm, tan, and those pouty, full lips!
I know that Bella LOVES Edward, but I don't have to.
My new fan based hullabaloo will be focused on the Jacob character!
Who do you side with?
