Playing the dot game at a long boring wedding

An apology

Michael threw a bit of a tantrum last night when I told him it was bed time after we played a game and didn't play another like he wanted. He said he would never play games with me again and that he didn't want to live in this house. Mom tried to explain to him how mean his words were. 

Today, Friday, I met him at the bus stop and he told me he got me a basketball pencil. He got to choose something from the treasure box at school for good behavior and saw the basketball pencil. He said he knew I liked basketball and was excited to get it for me and hoped it made me happy. I think it was his adorable way of apologizing. Even more adorable that I don't care at all about the Mavericks, but he doesn't  I know that. He was very cute and excited to give it to me. I sharpened it and put it in my work bag, which made him very excited that I was bringing it to work.

I will treasure this pencil!

When I am 100

Lucky younger ones

Michael and Peter are lucky to have Enoch read to them when they couldn't read, now Peter is lucky to have both Enoch and Michael read to him! And of course, all three of them are lucky to have mom and dad read to them! 

Missed the bus

This morning Enoch and Michael got ready for school before 7, I felt bad that it was dark outside, so I told them to leave home later to go to the bus stop. I started reading one of the "Bunnicula" series to the boys, and before I knew it, the boys missed their bus😂

Yesterday we hiked the Wasson Peak at West Saguaro National Park. It is about 7.4 miles both ways, Enoch and Michael hiked all by themselves!! So proud! Peter did great too, walked half way up and two thirds of way down. Mom carried Peter with a baby backpack carrier.
