the highlights

Zeke: "Mama, my nose hurts" Me: "why?" And then he rattles off some story that I really wasn't understanding. Fast forward a few hours. We're sitting around the dinner table eating & talking about the day & then Zeke says again: "my nose hurts". Charles says: "He was sneezing alot today" (Zeke 'worked' with Char that day) And so I ask again: "why does your nose hurt?" And Zeke answers: "Rock nose".... to which Charles says: "he was playing with some rocks today".... "did you put a rock up your nose?????!" Out comes the baby booger sucker & after a few tries:

Unfortunately, he didn't learn as the next day he also put a corn kernel up his nose which was also taken out by the baby booger sucker...

Yay! Char's 4th & 5th grade worship team started last week... off to a good start!

Zeke is terrified of the vaccuum and last week I just didn't want to deal with it so I got the little version out for him to use while I did the real deal- he loved it so much he wouldn't give it back.

We are blessed to have friends that cook, clean, & serve at the Good Samaritan Shelter every month and last month we were able to join them for the 3rd time along with our 4th & 5th grade kids from church. It was fun as always =]

A few mornings ago I got Bubba out of his crib & then went back into the kitchen to make breakfast. It had been a while since I'd seen him so I started the search & found him on our bed waiting patiently for Papa to awake:
