Don't be selfish!

A couple days earlier we went to Panda Express, Michael ate two egg rolls without asking if it was OK to eat a second and that extra egg roll was supposed to be mine. Today Enoch is sick with ear infection, he didn't eat breakfast, after the doctor appointment , I bought Enoch a chocolate milkshake with three cherries on top. Michael had to be whining and complaining and for the cherry and I told him to not be selfish and think that Enoch is sick. After a while Michael said that Enoch I have two cherries and Peter doesn't get one while he himself gets one cherry... I was rather shocked that this is his decision after thinking about Enoch being sick. I hope that this learning experience will teach Michael to not be so selfish.

Michael, mom and dad love you so much! We hope that when you grow up, you will learn to care for other people, not just yourself, especially your mom and dad and your siblings.

pretending you can't see

Michael, I want you to remember that when you were 4 years old you tried to trick us into believing you couldn't see so that you didn't have to learn how to read. I've been working with you for months now to do your letters and sounds and words and it's been slow going. I've always known you get frustrated, but then one day you said you couldn't see the letters because they were too small. I showed you many different sizes of letters and you said you couldn't see the small ones but could see the big ones. I felt terrible and thought that all your frustrations about learning how to read were because you couldn't see. Mom took you to the eye doctor as soon as possible, and he eventually said that your eyes look perfect. Apparently, at the doctor's office you were saying that you can't even see the largest of letters. However, the doctor dilated your eyes and said everything looks totally normal.

That little lie cost us a $20 copay and a $55 eye exam fee.

I think the whole thing is actually pretty hilarious. You are one crafty little boy and know how to get your way in life.

Different cows make different milk

Michael just told me that : There are three kinds of cows that make different milk. Brown cow makes chocolate milk, red cow makes strawberry milk, and the white cow makes 2% milk and whole milk😂

Gingerbread houses

Mesquite elementary had a family Feast party and every family get to decorate gingerbread houses.

I think this was their first gingerbread house decoration ever. They did great! Had so much fun!

Michael's house in the black container and Enoch's house in the clear container. Peter made a snowman with three mushmellows.
