Mom: "Do you need a tissue?"
R: "Not anymore."

Friday night at the dinner table.
Warren: "How was your day?"
Me (discouraged after a day of not getting anything productive done): "Well, I didn't accomplish anything..."
Warren: "Our kids are safe, everyone has had food to eat and everyone is healthy. That's a lot!"
Am I a lucky lady or what!!!

Rebecca in the car after playing with some new friends today.
R: "Mom, the four year old was already missing a tooth. That's young to be missing a tooth. He is the LUCKIEST kid I've ever saw in my life!!!!" (I didn't edit her grammar).

We were going out to eat with family the other night and had to wait a little longer than we are used to for dinner. Joseph was starving. On the way to the restaurant I let him play with his new soft plastic sword. I heard ripping in the car-it sounded like paper. I wasn't worried. We arrived at our destination to discover this:
He had successfully had his appetizer for the evening and chewed off one side of his brand new sword. Don't delay feeding your children. You never know what might happen!

And our afternoon art project:
Name monsters. Fold a piece of paper in half. Write your name in cursive in crayon. Fold the paper back up and rub it so you'll get a mirror image. Open it back up and turn it into a monster!

I think those are the little things that make up a nice happy family. Thanks for sharing! Great project idea as well, turning your name into a monster, what joy!
Wow! Impressive art skills. You're good at finding fun stuff (and taking time!!!) like that.
What a fun post to read. Kids say (and eat??) the darndest things. I love those name monsters - I'll have to try that with my kiddos sometime. Is that a light sabre on Monster Warren?
P.S. Do you mind if I put a link to your blog on mine?
I am dying over the sword... he is one awesome little boy.
I am going to do the art project with my girls.
