Kicked in the Karma

I just got an invite to my 20 year High School reunion for next summer. I went with Joel his his 20 year... I made fun of him for being old enough to have his 20th....

Determined!

Clifton kept all of us up late last night. This morning everyone woke up on time, a bit sleepy. Sable went off to school happy. I had to force dress Clifton this morning and bribe him into the car to make my gym class on time. I was yawning on my BOSU ball. Our day is getting easier. I hope for an early bedtime tonight.

"Celebrate good times, COME ON!"

The new bus driver always has music on in the mornings. Kool & the Gang's Celebrate came on while I was trying to buckle Sable into her seat. There were many dance moves to navigate but I got her secured and off to school shouting "Come on, Woo Hoo!"

the crazy things I say in the morning.

I woke up late and groggy this morning. I walked into the living room and saw Joel drinking coffee, browsing the internet. The kids were calmly watching morning cartoons and drinking juice. I said to Joel "Why do you look so sexy this morning?" Without looking up or changing his deadpan expression, he said,"You were up all night with cliff and you're probably just delusional"

WEST SIDE!

Clifton and I were waiting for the school bus and there was a girls soccer game starting across the street. They huddled and yelled "1, 2, 3, WEST SIDE!" and Clifton yelled back "NO!" I heard some girls giggle.

Counting our doughnuts...

Joel grabbed some doughnuts for the kids this morning. After Sable finished hers, she asked for more. Joel said, "No, you only had one." and Sable said, "We needed two."

Kids are fun!

We've had some wonderful firsts this month. Both Sable and Cliff have started talking in sentences: "Giraffe has long neck" and "Where's sister's bus?" Sable is so excited for school each day that she runs to the school bus waving to her friends. Clifton helps get dressed in the morning so we can get to the gym and play. He's also holding doors open for people.

Sable was on the deck the other day looking up. Joel asked, "Are you looking at the sky?" and Sable said "It's SO high!"

When Cliff and I leave anyplace, we say "Thank you (best part)." We left the bank today where he was given a lollipop. He said "Thank you, suckers."
