BEST THINGS ABOUT CHRISTMAS...

* Waking up each morning to find Elfy! This is one of our favorite traditions! We love waking up to find elfy in a new spot each morning! We can't believe the silly places he finds to sit and watch us! He is hanging on the curtain rod near our kitchen this morning! And this year he/she came wearing a skirt! Love watching the excitement on my kids face... and love that they went to bed good lastnight!

*Love Christmas Music on my tv. Just remembered about this this morning. Turned it on and danced with Halie and Brock... Halie loved it! And Brock giggled! SO FUN!

2nd Grade (I wish I could be a fly on the playground)

I take and pick Micah up from school everyday. Some people ask why I don't send him on the bus... but this time is time I really do cherish! I get to hear all the fun stories on the way home from school. It's our one on one time (with Halie and Brock tagging along). He spills all the details of his day on the way home from school and I LOVE IT!.

Today he was so cute! He started by saying that "Well mom you know recess was a little hard today" I thought oh boy what happened? Then he started rambling about how him and Maycee (his best girl friend) were making up their own club. And how it was a boy and girl club but the boys were on Tuesday and Friday and the girls were on Monday and Wednesday but he wanted it to be everyone on every day. Then they were having kids sign up for the club but someone put their name in cursive and he had to go in and find an eraser because the rule was you couldn't sign your name in cursive. I asked what the club was for or what they were going to do in the club and he said it was "just a FUN CLUB.... where they are going to do FUN things... like play soccer, four square, jump rope, you know things like that mom!"

Most days I look at him and want to cry because he is growing up tooooooo fast! But days like today make me happy because he's not to big yet, and he is growing up to be such a good boy! And that makes me proud to be his mom! LOVE THIS KID!!!

A few times a week I want to go pick him up from school and bring him home! I know I can't cause his teacher would kill me... but if I could just be a fly on the playground I would love watching him with his friends! I know it would bring me some good laughs!)
