Red Boy & Chocolate



Ethan said some very funny things yesterday and I wanted to share 2 of them.
Ethan was playing around and all of a sudden he came running down the hall and said Hell Boy, Mom, I want to go see Hell Boy. I told Ethan remember we call the movies Red Boy. Ethan then said but mom, the movie is really called Hell Boy, that’s what they call it on TV. I told him, yea but that’s not a nice word for a 4 year old to say so we call it Red Boy. Ethan then asked Mom but, why is it a bad word. I told him well, Hell is were the Devil lives and in the movie Red Boy came from there. Then all of a sudden Ethan said, O I get it, Hell is the state Red Boy lives in. We live in the state of Oregon and he live in the state of Hell. I just rubbed his head and said ya, that’s about right.
Later, he was watching Willie Wonka and during the start of the movie, when they show all of the different kinds of chocolate being made Ethan informed me Mom I eat a lot of chocolate and it’s not good for me, look at all this chocolate on the movie, it is not good for kids. I told him your right, good job realizing that. Then he said mom, I’m not ever eating chocolate again because I’m going to be healthy, never again, today is my last day I’m going to eat chocolate. I told him I was very proud of him for making a decision like that. He then looked at me and with a little smirk he said…So can I have some chocolate. I smiled and said you got me. A few chocolate covered raisins later Ethan was all smiles for coming up with a good plan to get some more chocolate.

Happy Birthday to ME!!!






This year for my Birthday, my birthday present is my family.
There is NOTHING!!!! better to me then being with my family for the day. I can not get enough of them, especially when Jeromy is there to help me with our crazy energy draining boys. Today I am hoping that Jeromy will get done with his surgery’s sooner then later so he can come home and give me a big hug and a whole lot of smooches, then take the family and I out so I don’t have to cook tonight. The only thing that could make my day better is if ALL of my family was able to be together….from my crazy side to Jeromy’s normal side and even our wonderful family from Brazil. Who knows maybe next year? Anyways, happy birthday to me….and to Dannie can’t forget about her, it her Birthday too.
