Making a wish

We were outside enjoying the nice warm weather, and David finds a dandelion.

He blows on it and says, "I wish for a big piece of chocolate cake!"

And the teenage bear said,

"Who's been eating my porridge?"
The hair- that is a whole other story!

Pictures of the girls




Here are some recent pics of the girls. Kate loves to sit on David's garage to watch TV, but what about that pose? Then little Miss Caroline- yes, without a Cinderella shirt on- for now.

Let it snow....







Today we had a sprinkle of snow- which is a lot for Dallas. It was very exciting and we got to play outside for about 15 minutes before it all melted away and turned to mud. This comes once a year so we had to go experience it. The kids loved it! David and Brent had a mini snowball fight (with as much snow as they could gather up from tables).


Salazar Nudist Camp


I am not sure when it all began, but two of my children are constantly taking off their clothes. They could go all day naked if possible- playing, sleeping, dinner, etc. No, we are not modeling this for our children. It is actually making me crazy!!!! David and Caroline are constantly wanting to take off their clothes and change clothes. Do they think I don't do enough laundry?!? :)

BUNNY WHO?

Today David was acting awful and like we heard growing up, I said:

"David, if you don't behave, the Easter Bunny is going to hop over our house. He is not going to fill up your basket with treats for acting naughty."

He replied, "The Rooster Bunny is coming and is going to bring me eggs!" :)

Supporting Our Little Ones

David has had a hard time at school and places where there are many people. He gets easily overstimulated which gets him into trouble. We have been working with him so much on self control and his hyperactivity (me, his teachers, a director).
He has been getting special Spiderman stickers when he is behaving at school, so today he got one and put it on my shirt when I saw him early in the day. I was so proud of him and left it on my shirt for the rest of the day. That was my way to show my support for him- didn't really think it would make any difference, but just felt like it was my way to show support and how proud of him I am.
When we got in the car, he told me he got another sticker and I showed him that I was still wearing the first one. He just beamed and said, "Mom, I love you sooo much!"

That touched me - that small way of support really meant so much to him. Sometimes it just takes something so small to touch a little soul.
