Insightful Vinyl For The Week
"Don’t be gloomy. Do not dwell on unkind things. Stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight. Even if you are not happy, put a smile on your face. “Accentuate the positive.” Look a little deeper for the good. Go forward in life with a twinkle in your eye and a smile on your face, with great and strong purpose in your heart. Love life.” ~ Gordon B. Hinckley

MY LITTLE HELPER.......

4/29/2010: Vacuuming is never easy at my house. It's an all day adventure. "All day" you say. Yes, all day! Anytime I turn on the vacuum, THEY come running!

It starts out with Silas wanting to "Do et meself mom. Me a beg boy."
Which really means that he just wants to goof around. Within 30 seconds he's wielding the arm like a gun, "pew, pew, doot, doot, pew, pew!"
Sure enough, after a couple minutes he's ready for me to "cean mines hair mom, peeeaaasssss!"


They try to ride or stand on the vacuum, push it themselves, play chicken, and eventually try to see exactly what I am willing to vacuum up, i.e, sock, spoon, toys, etc. And so we go through this process all over again as we move from room to room! This is why it takes ALL day.

OH MAN you have the cutest kids!!! I just love their cute little faces! I love hearing the stories...i can just see them saying these things and doing the things you describe! Love it!

The other day, both the kids surprised me by cleaning both of their rooms and also getting the vaccum out themselves to finish up their rooms. It was such a wonderful thing and I had to go in and giggle with them as they tried to vaccum their rooms. SOO fun!!
