Sweet Innocence.

Kids are so innocent and (in a way) naieve (sp?). My son saw a statue of the Mother Mary and was asking about her. I explained that she was Jesus' mother and that she lived long ago. Then my sweet girl asked how long ago, "Like 5 years mom?". I told her it was a lot longer ago than that and of course, wanted to have that explained a little more. Then she asked if Mary had died. When I told her that Mary did die, she was very sad and like she had known her personally said in a quiet almost choked up voice, "Oh Mom, I didn't know Mary died." What a sweet girl I have. She still prays, nearly every day, for my best friend's grandmother who passed away a couple of years ago. Thankfully, Nana is already where prayers are no longer needed. ;) I expect she will be adding Mary to those prayers.

A Full-Grown Man!

I know that I have mentioned before that my son is a funny kid...(ahem!...MAN). Well, just in case you were wondering, he still is! (Just as him!) Today Aaron said something involving Tiger being "little". His reply to Daddy? "I'm not like a baby anymore Dad, (then in a big, puffed-up ego voice said...) I'm a full-grown man!" What a kick! Aaron and I both had a good laugh over that one!

Hello!

I know, I know...I am so bad at this. Whenever my blog gives me any grief, I tend to let it go for a while. I was trying to get rid of my duplicates last time and got frustrated.
Anyhoo, here I am. Not really having anything else to say...
My mini dachshund turned 7 yesterday. Valentine's Day 2000 was Peika Boo's birthday. That means my "baby" girl will be 7 next month also. Aaron and I celebrated our 12th Valentine's Day yesterday. Well, not really celebrated, we'll take care of that on Saturday...when the grandparents have the kids! ;p Woo-hoo!
