Funny Stories

OK for those of you who didn't know, last week I had Sam home ALL WEEK with the CROUP. Daniel was very upset because he didn't want to be on the bus by himself. I just had to tell him to toughen up & sit with one of his friends. (He's the most sensitive of the boys) Well, this week Daniel & David are down with the CROUP. So I though Sam would be a bit upset too about the bus thing, but I was wrong. He told me "No, I'll be fine. I'll just sit with Miranda & my LOUSY friend Jessalin." I had to laugh! See the week before he was sick she told him she wanted to be his girlfriend & he doesn't want a girlfriend yet, so he got mad. She is still his friend, but she falls under his "lousy friend" category. The nerve of some girls!:) The other story is about the missing tooth. We've been bugging him for weeks to just give it a little yank & it would pop right out. His words were "NEVER". SO, yesterday they had off for Veteran's Day & he was showing me how he could spin his tooth all the way around (yeah - Gross!). He still would not even attempt to pull it. At noon I was on the phone with Dan & Sam climbed up into my lap facing me, & spinning his tooth. I told Dan what he was doing & he laughed. It was literally hanging on by a string!!! As he was twisting it I gave his had a little tap & out it flew! The look on his face was priceless!!! Surprise, shock & happiness all in one. It was soooo ready it didn't even bleed. I laughed so hard I cried! I think Dan on the other end of the phone did too. AH THE MEMORIES!! Hope todays stories gave you a little chuckle!

School Pics

These are the boys school pics. We don't have Tor's yet cause she just got them taken on 10/31, but I think we'll still have them before Thanksgiving. I'm also still waiting on her pics she had taken at Pocono Mountain. Sam has an odd smile but both of his top from teeth are SUPER loose. I mean like they flap in & out when he breaths, & he won't let us give them even a little tug, so he always looks like he's sorta biting his lip.

Pete - The neighborhood watch dog

This little guy is Pete. He belongs to Mr. & Mrs. Franklin who own the cows & goats, but Pete thinks he owns the neighborhood & kids. He protects the kids & you can bet that where ever the kids are he's there. He's very sweet!!

Fuzz Balls

In order from top to bottom is Trinity (F), Cob-web (M), and Licorice (F). We've decided to take in Cob-web & Licorice & Mr. Franklin is going to take Trinity for over at his other farm. The neighbor kids had them hid from their parents & we just couldn't see them neglected, so once again our family has grown.
