Okay, I'm going to make a long overdue effort to keep this blog up as it was intended, to chronicle the milestones of my boys and my journey through motherhood. It may not be fancy or eloquent, but I'm going to at least start posting what the boys are saying/doing once a week.
Seth: Got in trouble at school yesterday for choking a little girl who tried to play with his new friend. When I questioned him about whether he had seen anything like that on television, his response was "Yes, maam it was on a movie. It's called My First Movie All About Choking, starring me, Seth Johnston choking a girl at school." (Sometimes I really don't know what to do with this boy.) Later that day: "Mommy, you're the best mom I ever had." Tonight: :"Mommy, earlier when you told me there were no coaches for that train on Amazon dot com, I think you lied to me. I think we both lied to eachother today and we should just ask for forgiveness and start over."
Daniel: Pulling every book off the shelves and turning the pages.. emptying the contents of every unlocked cabinet.. playing in the toilet any chance he gets. Said "Dadda bye-bye" after Don left tonight, as if to say "Daddy left." Says "High five, down low!" Loves his stuffed bunny Thumper, and calls him "Gump-Gump." Favorite food by far is grapes. Holds his hand up and attempts to shout "Yay God" after the blessing, although its more like "Hey Gah!" Gives lots of hugs and kisses. Will pretend to offer a hug when he actually just wants you to pick him up so he can climb what you're sitting on. Climbs everything and attempts to jump off. Has NO fear.
