About Me

A mom of 4, I blog very rarely, and use this mostly for future memory of when I forgot to capture these events in a baby book somewhere.

Why did he steal their money?

While I am coming into the office to post about a funny thing Will said today, Scott is reading him his bible story. They get to Zaccheus, and we sing the song. Scott starts to read the story and it starts by saying something like, "Do you have friends? Zaccheus didn't..." And Will jumps in by pointing at the picture of Zaccheus on the opposite page and asking Scott, "Why did Zaccheus steal their money?" He is so brilliant! Granted, he has heard that story before, but it's been at least since before Christmas. We read a story a night, and when we get to the end of the book we start over. I'm just amazed at his memory.

So the story I was coming in to write about...
The title: All Arabs Must Be...

We are watching the movie American Dreamz today. If you haven't seen it, it is an American Idol rip off intermixing a plot line of a dumb president, Mandy Moore as a contestant, Hugh Grant as Ryan Seacrest, and a guy from Iraq as a contestant. In the beginning of the movie that guy is at a training camp for terrorists in Iraq. There is a scene where all the guys are sitting around in a tent, and they all have beards, are dark skinned, and have turbans on their heads. My almost 3 year old son says, "There's Jesus and Joseph!" How funny is he!

I also have to note that later on in the movie there is a black female contestant that has a big afro, and she has her hair split into two high ponytails (so there are two big puffs of hair in the shape of balls). and Will says, "that girl looks like Mickey Mouse!" He makes me laugh so much. Adults without kids must live such nonfunny lives. I can't imagine how boring my life would be without him.

Other goings on in our lives right now..
Will's favorite song is Particle Man by They Might Be Giants, and he now makes us show him the Tiny Toons video of the song on the computer every night.

Kirstine loves giving kisses. They are so cute. She doesn't always give them to us when we ask her, but she ALWAYS gives them to Will if we ask her to, and then she gets in a mood and gives everyone kisses. She's so cute because she puckers up and points her chin up in the air and makes a cute kissing noise. I just can't get enough of them.
