A Protector of Right!

Madisen is so sweet and thoughtful. She puts up with a lot from her younger sisters and usually does so with much grace. We are so very proud of her. She has the potential to do and be so much in her life! Well last week on the play ground at school Avery had peed her pants a little bit and when one of Madisen's friends that saw that Avery had peed her pants-starting making fun of Avery then yelling out loud for all to hear around the play ground, "Avery peed her pants!!" Madisen right away told this girl to stop yelling that because she is being mean and embarrassing her sister."

Ryan and I were so proud that Madisen stood up to this friend, because it is hard to stand up to anyone especially friends that have louder personalities than her. So good job Madisen! Thanks for protecting your sister.

Kissing boys?

Emily told me that she had a new boy in her class. I said, Oh good! Were you nice to him? She said, yes. I asked her if she played with him? She said, yes. I then asked her if he was cute. She said, yes he is. Joking around I said, "Well as long as you don't kiss him though!" Emily replies, "I already did!" ...WHAT? You kissed him?! Oh boy! So it begins....the youngest one out before the older two...haha.

Avery's idea of Dinner

One night right before I was about to start making dinner Avery walked up to me and said, I want marshmallows, ice cream and scrambled eggs for dinner.

Interesting combination.

20 is the new 30...right?

Ryan and I went out for a date last night and got a sitter to watch the girls. The baby-sitter, Tessa put on a barbie movie for the girls. Avery asked Tessa as they were watching it, "How old is Barbie you think?"
Tessa replied probably about 25 years old. Which then Avery blurts out, "My mom wishes she was 25 but she is 30!"

Making others' day a little Brighter

Madisen gave me a card last week that said, I love you Mom. It was so very cute and dear to me. I appreciate her thoughtfulness to make other people feel good. Thank you Madisen.
