"Firefly"

So my Sweet Boy has always made up names for everyone. Some of them are rather strange and off the wall and seem to come out of seemingly nowhere. He has always done this since he was very tiny. He rarely ever calls anyone by their right name. Mommy is "Nahneee." Daddy is "Dallas" (as in Texas). And now Little Lids is "Firefly." It seems to fit as she just lights up the room when she is in it. Her eyes tell it all. She has the sweetest disposition.

Grace Ann has a quick wit, we've decided. She has always been sharp as a tack and when she laughs it comes from somewhere deep down. You just have to laugh with her. The other day Mommy said something about "heavy duty" and boy she rolled over with that one. It was the wrong kind of "duty" but apparently it was hilarious to her.

The kids are saving their money with the bank Nana gave them. Whenever they do chores or help out they get rewarded with some cash. Yesterday we spent the day "spring cleaning" inside and outside the house so they earned a little moolah. So far the family has saved $38. We told them we would save up and do something really fun with it this summer. They keep asking me "what" we are going to do and I keep telling them "it all depends on how much we save!"
