awwww.. isn't that cute?

Abby - When asked if she wanted to make "Lolo" sad by being a bad girl and hitting other kids, Abby responded.. "No, I LOVE Lolo!"

Mary - Mary was upset that Miss Katie had to go home and wouldn't be staying longer at our house.  I told Mary that Miss Katie didn't live with us and needed to go back to her own house.  "But Miss Katie is part of our family - she LIVES in our family."

Gabby - when asked what her favorite part of safety town was last week, Gabby responded, "making new friends."  (Which Mary rolled her eyes at... "you always say things like that!")

Mateo -  approached my bed this morning all sad... "Mommy, I need a kiss from you before I can wake up!" 

all - This morning, the girls took me by the hand because they wanted to show me something in their room.  When I got in there, they told me to touch the spindle (the rocking chair that they had turned backwards).  I played along and touched the spindle - falling down and into a deep sleep like Princess Aurora.  (Actually, it wasn't too hard to want to fall back asleep!)  Not long after, the girls dragged Daddy into the room to tell him that he had to kiss his princess to break the sleeping spell.  I have to admit that I enjoyed my first performance of sleeping beauty!


I am pretty darn lucky to have such cute kids.

plans

Mateo's response to me when I told him I wasn't sure what we were going to do tomorrow...
"We don't have any plans?"  (No, no plans I responded).  "Well, I have a plan... hmm.... we can go to that place... maybe a museum?  Is there one nearby? Or the library?  Or the nature center?  And Subway... I like that place.  We can eat there?  And get cheese on our sandwich... and eat their chips there... you know, the cheeto's.  Sounds like a good plan, Mom?

It sure does, Toe.  :)

Princess Ball

The girls and I went to a princess ball held at the Middleburg Hts. community center at the end of May.  It was literally a wedding reception-style party - complete with DJ, princesses, and food.  The girls had a blast dancing with their favorite princesses!


my, my prince charming (all smiles from the girls)
