Parenting.. The Good Stuff

So as my daughter's birthday party wrapped up, my sister came up to me to ask if I was aware that my clothes, including my underwear were laying in the yard... horrified and thinking they were joking with me I went to look at the damage. Sure enough there in the bushes lay an array of clothes, I looked up and thought well that is a perfect view for our party goers. So as we investigated how in the world they got them outside we looked up and noticed the side of the screen over my bedroom window was slightly opened.. hmmmmm what could possibly make them think pushing clothes out of a tiny hole would be fun? I never know, but I was too amused at the creativity to be mad, so all I could do was shake my head. You have got to love this stuff.

In the previous week, Belle, my gorgeous, precious, daughter was sick and had to have ear drops and nasal drops to suction out her nose. At bedtime I went to get the medicine and it was missing, as I got frustrated because I could not find it, I started gathering dishes to be washed later on. As I picked up 1 glass I noticed a sock in a cup as I removed the sock, there is Belle's medicines. She stood there looking innocent as can be, when I asked her Belle where is your medicine, she answers, In that cup, I don't like it. My smart child, hiding yucky medicine at 2 years old.

As I write these stories reminds me of all the love I have in my heart for my children, they are precious and never ever cease to amaze me.

Love,
Karen
