~Motorcycle coming to a Kid near you!~
Low key day today. Britt went over to her brothers' apt last nite and Shane brought her back this afternoon. She loves going over to see them and I think they love having her b/c they know she'll cook for them and clean up the kitchen LOL!
Shane also sort-of-told-me (but knew I didn't want to hear) that he is buying a motorcycle. He was asking for info on our insurance company so he could call and get his own policy. He was approved for a bank loan(without a co-signer) Sounds like he'll have it in the next couple of days. I am not thrilled. I am not happy about it at all. Motorcycles are great and all, its just that I have this huge fear that someone I love will get seriously hurt or worse. And yet, he's a big boy now. He has his own place, job, pays his own bills and goes to school. He knows how I feel, and he's tried to make me not so scared. It just doesn't work when its your kids y'know? His reasoning: Less gas=less $$ My reasoning: Not alive=don't need any $$.
Kallee taught herself math the other day. I don't remember if I mentioned it. She just started writing 1+1 2, 1+1+1 3. All I taught her was to put an = sign in there. Today she and I did the 2's. SHe practiced drawing hearts and coloring them in. She added words to her Word Book. (its a composition book she uses to add words that she never spelled before).
Dallas has begun to play with the abc magnets on the fridge. He strings a bunch of letters in a line and then asks what it spells. I hate to tell him nothing, so Kallee and I look for some word in the letters and then I say 'here move this letter over here and...it spells___"
Earlier, Dallas was playing with GI Joe and was putting him in his jeep. He couldn't get him in and kept shoving until...GI Joe lost his head! Broke right off. And there's never any super glue when you need it. So Dallas asked me how he was supposed to drive? ummm...I'm not thinking he's driving today.
Today Britt moved all the plants back out around the koi pond. I'm planning on working on the pond tomorrow.
I'll come back later....it's waaaay too quiet right now. And we all know thats not good!
Mama loves u... 4:41 PM
