Does anyone else feel like life has hit crazy levels yet?? We are so busy all the time and I feel that I don't have time to blog.
My flying monkey tried to fly off the ladder and cut her chin. Three cheers if you can guess which one I am talking about.
Does anyone else just think that their stinkers are so cute that you just want to bottle it up and keep it forever.
One of them asked how I picked out dad to be my husband. I did think that question was coming so soon. She wants to pick out her husband. I told her that after dating a few people that were not for me I asked God. Then God told me in a dream who I was to marry. I said that daddy had know from the first moment that he saw me. I told her that God may not pick out a boy that she knows right how to be her husband. (and yes you blogger's that have boys that go to church are on the list of which one she is going to marry) I told her the best that she could do was to pray for the person that God had for her so that he would stay safe and in God's will.
Has anyone read Winnie-The-Pooh by A. A. Milne? This is the best book and you need to read it. Here is one of my favorite parts: (this is from the Expotition to the North Pole chapter) The word Expotition is spelled that way in the book because that is what Pooh calls it since he can't say Expedition. I just wanted you to understand that I can spell most of the time and spell check the rest of the time. LOL
"In a little while they were ready at the top of the Forest, and the Expotition started. First came Christopher Robin and Rabbit, then Piglet and Pooh; then Kanga, with Roo in her pocket, and Owl; then Eeroye; and at the end, in a long line, all Rabbit's friends-and-relations.
"I don't ask then," said Rabbit carelessly. "They just came. They always do. They can march at the end, after Eeyore."
"What I say," said Eeyore, "is that it's unsettling. I didn't want to come on this Expo- what Pooh said. I only came to oblige. But here I am; and if I am the end of the Expo- what we're talking about- then let me be the end. But if, every time I want to sit down for a rest, I have to brush away half a dozen of Rabbit's smaller friends-and-relations first, then this isn't an Expo-whatever it is- at all, it's simple a Confused Noise. That's what I say."
"I see what Eeyore means," said Owl. "If you ask me -------"
"I'm not asking anybody," said Eeyore. "I'm just telling everybody. We can look for the North Pole, or we can play 'Here we go gathering Nuts and May' with the end part of an ant's nest. It's all the same to me."
That just had me rolling they are so much like real people. They remind me of the folks that are older at a home sitting together and talking. Then you don't have to read this next one if you didn't enjoy the first one but here is my other favorite.
Next Quote:
"It's just the place," he explained, " for an Ambush."
"What sort of bush?" whispered Pooh to Piglet. " A gorse-bush?"
"My dear Pooh," said Owl in his superior way, "don't you know what an Ambush is?"
"Owl," said Piglet, looking round at him severely, "Pooh's whisper was a perfectly private whisper, and there was no need ------"
"An Ambush," said Owl, "is a sort of Surprise."
"So is a gorse-bush sometimes," said Pooh.
"An Ambush, as I was about to explain to Pooh," said Piglet, "is a sort of Surprise."
"If people jump out at you suddenly, that's an Ambush," said Owl.
"It's an Ambush, Pooh, when people jump at you suddenly," said Piglet.
Pooh, who now knew what an Ambush was, said that a gorse-bush had sprung at him suddenly one day when he fell off a tree, and he had taken six days to get all the prickles out of himself.
"We are not talking about gorse-bushes," said Owl a little crossly.
"I am," said Pooh."
So that is my contribute to Winnie the Pooh. I am working on a project that I hope A. will be able to take to the fair. I want her to take pictures of M. being Christopher Robin and a bear we have that looks like the original bear. I am looking for someone that has inside stairs but I can not think of anyone. Most of the people I know (including me) have one level to their house. So tell me if you know of anyone and I will be grateful.
Sorry for such a long blog.

I know you are busy, but I look forward to your blog. How's my girls? I'll probably talk to you guys before or on Thanksgiving, but if I don't have a wonderful day. Hug everyone for me.
I love the original Pooh books! The stories are hilarious, the words flow, and the vocabulary is rich. Love it.
I've been too busy to even comment! ;) Miss you and those girls. Julia told me out of the blue the other day that she wanted to go back to SA because she missed her friends....
