Funny Boys

Our spring musical was a hit, and Kaleb was the cutest cow in the Barnyard Moosical!

Braylen won 1st place in Bible Quiz--so proud of you Buddy!

Aaron's rediscovered his love for our car wash.

All 3 boys have loved it dearly.

Last week I lived out the phrase, "What's been done before will be done again. There's nothing new under the sun." My youngest son needed to visit a urologist, and when I walked into that office with him, memories of my young self visiting a urologist's office came flooding back. My mom used to take me there all the time--NOT a fun place for a young girl to go. Mom used to say she felt like the little old men would stare at me in the waiting room, so we'd check in and then go walk around the strip mall to wait for my appointment. When I signed Aaron in for his appointment, I was the mom who thought my little child seemed out of place in that environment. Funny how the tables have turned, but the situation is the same. While we waited for his name to be called, Aaron noticed two white-haired ladies walk up to the counter. He pointed at them and said, "Look Mommy! They're twins!" Then he pointed to 2 other white-haired people in the chairs and said, "More twins!" Thankfully they all appeared hard of hearing (or asleep!) and I could enjoy a private laugh with my son. :)

Kaleb's been learning about the Washington Monument in school, and it's really captured his attention. Actually, all of the history he's learning is capturing his attention. He talks about George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, national landmarks...it's quite amusing to see this coming from him. Of course he confuses his facts, so instead of America splitting from England, he told us India. And I never knew 2 other countries wanted George Washington for their leader. India and Spain? :) But the best one yet is when he told us the Washington Monument is as old as Daddy.

While driving home from school last week, Aaron started shouting "Ewww, that car has skinny woman and skinny man lights! Move over Mommy, I don't want to be behind the skinny woman lights!" He was talking about a Honda CR-V, with the narrow upper-level tail lights. For whatever reason, he doesn't like them with a passion!

Finally, Kaleb said something to me on Friday that meant the world to me. After praying with him at breakfast, he added, "And thank you for YOU Mommy." To a mom who's doing it all on her own for 2 weeks, it was music to my ears.
