top ten for the week

Top ten most memorable moment of my week (in no particular order):

10- Pulling a muscle in my right leg know as the "Groin muscle". Craig has had a great time teasing me about the fact that I didn't know I had one...what, it sounds like something only boys would have. Does it not?

9- Layla pooping at the petting zoo, and me almost trading her for a kitten.

8- riding electric cart through Walmart (because of aforementioned leg injury)

7- running into display and knocking over BIG garbage can with electric cart in the dead silent middle of walmart. (where were all the crying children? I mean really, when is walmart EVER quiet.)

6- playing in the rain with Carter and Layla

5- Seeking advice from older, wiser, kinder sister, and being awed by her wisdom.

4- moving my fridge and oven back into my newly remodeled kitchen after five weeks without them. Welcome back oven... we baked brownies in honer of your return to us.

3- taking 48 hand impressions in the past 10 days.

2- Talking Layla into sending her poo down to the magical water world under our house. (aka, pooing on the toilet)

1- Carter and Layla singing me to sleep, and gently stroking my face after I hurt myself.


Life is beautiful...sometimes you just have to look harder to see it.

I love this list. Mainly because many of the items are potential negatives that you've somehow spun into positives. That is purely awesome. I just have to ask...did you pull your groin muscle at Wal-Mart?

You're amazing and strong. Love you.

Uhmmm. What do you say to a week like that??? 'I'm sorry? I've been there? Does it still hurt? or just an outburst of laughter! Seriously funny.

First of all... How did you hurt your groin? Second of all... i want to see your new kitchen! I need to try this "magical water world under our house" trick! Congrats on the handcasts- crap you must be super busy! How is the pregnancy? We are coming home in Sept. to bless the baby. I hope that our boys can meet and be best friends forever at first sight! :-) HEY-- take it easy- especially on that groin, you are gonna need that! :-) lots of loves! ~
