Wow....Seven.....I'm a mother of a seven year old. Surreal.
My sweet Brooks turned seven yesterday...and Reagan...four today. I could go on and on about how impossible this seems...but I'll spare us.
I so love these kiddos. Brooks had his good buddy, Dawson over after school on Monday..and then we went to Chuck E.Cheese's in Cedar Rapids. I found myself laughing out loud at the seven year old conversations going on in the back of the van...here's a few quotes:
Dawson," Brooks, if you want to have a girlfriend...I can catch one for you." "I'll even train her for you!"
Brooks, "I wish we weren't so good looking so the girls at recess wouldn't chase us!"
Brooks: "I stink. I smell like a bunch of rotten old strawberries"
What???
Strange. That's all I can say...
Reagan's day wasn't quite as exciting. She had great plans for "sharing" at preschool....made some cookies for her classmates..and it was to be her special day. ICE STORM! NO preschool today..bummer! They do this awesome little interview of the kids as they bring something from home to talk about and answer questions about. (I've learned the other kids just really keep asking them differing renditions of the same question...."where'd you get that?? who gave it to you?? where'd you buy it? who bought that for you? where'd you buy that?") cute...nonetheless.
Reagan....a little sick today..runny nose still getting the best of her. What a blessing that she's not "sick sick" though.
Love those kids! Wish I could download pics so you could love em, too!
