the youngest and his malady
he has started to sleep & play through treatment....this seems to disturb me more than when he fought
i guess when he fought it...it meant it wasn't the "NORM" alas his lung condition
has become a thing we "do"...but isn't he sooo cute in his fishy face?
Soon he will grow out of this {cross your fingers}
and we will have spent a little extra time with the poor chap...
all's well that ends well...i'd like to say

Funny monday...my favs
Lately our sweet little Eliza is more like the other devilish two year-olds of the world. When the older kids appolgise she has started to say, with a dirty look on her face, "Don't sorry me."

Georgia was sitting on her bed for yet another pee incident. She kept calling to my mom to come see her. My mom yelled, "George, I can't come in there, you're being punished." Down the hall Isaac chimed in, "Yeah, you're being punished for your own sins, and not for Adam's transgression."
( ***note from the author of flourish***i still laugh every time i even think of this story..i guess it is my all time number 1 favorite funny Monday story)

Last week, my hair was a little crazy. I desperately needed a cut. Tons of hair plus tons of curls equals frizz when not done. I was babysitting my nephew, and he promptly asks "Aunt Amber...is something wrong with your hair? You look like a clown."

Michael was inside the movie theater the other night and called me to see which movie I would like to see. I said I just don't want to see anything Dramatic. Too which Kailye promptly said "Hey, dramatic! That's what I am!"
ohhhh that George....one more from
Brandy
Her Uncles were showing her off to their friends during the final four basketball game and I heard them ask Georgia (in the other room), to recite the Articles of Faith. She said a few and they all cheered for her. A few seconds went by and she says, "Can I have a dollar?"

creation is marvelous
in tribute to a little show on NPR called science Friday
i saw fit to mark Friday science day
today we learned about weather patterns...clouds...rain...tornado's...hurricanes...snow....sun...and the like
then we made a rainbow...unfortunately it didn't show up in the picture but take it from me it was a beaut !
then we watched the clouds while laying on a blanket
((((I LOVE FRIDAY's))))
***note from the author***
yes..Liam is wearing his birthday crown, and yes his birthday was 3 days before the photo was taken...hey take what you can get right..why not don your birthday crown throughout your birthday week....the best is that he is TOTALLY unaffected by what others think....he was asked more than 3 times why he was wearing it when it wasn't his birthday and his answer was "I LIKE IT!!"...that's enough reason for anyone i suppose..you can imagine how this affected our resident rule cop {Jax}...he he..."MOM it isn't his birthday anymore tell him he can't wear it"
