Garden...
Boy, am I gonna miss this new little baby of mine:) In just a few weeks it will be buried under a few feet of snow and I will be sad eating store bought tomatoes and zucchini, beans and sugar snap peas, but most of all...cucumbers and peppers (my favorite garden growns...so far)!
I have always wanted a garden. I remember getting off the bus in grade school with one of my best friends...and she had tomatoes. Without fail, before we opened her front door, we would each grab a big ol' red ripe juicy tomato and dig into it as if it were an apple....MMMMMM!
So, because Ive always wanted one...I got one. I even plowed it with a freakin shovel....because I was so anxious to get it started. Shawn helped me push the little seeds into the ground:) So grateful for him:) Im kidding Shawn, I really do love you:) And to his credit, he knew more than me when it came to this project, I just did all the manly work. Partly because, and like I said before, I was very impatient...and some people might argue Im part man:)
So, we pushed the seeds into the ground, and weeks later, to our surprise...a miracle occured! SPROUTS! From then on, I have been out in my garden every day watering away, checking on each little sprout, weeding like crazy, and now....enjoying the luscious fruits of my labor. Its a new found hobby...I love it. And I will miss it. So I will enjoy it. For now. Until that awful, cold, white stuff wipes it out! Blah.

More conversations...
Raegan was talking to herself...playing something...and this is how it went:
EVAN: "Rae, are you talking to me?"
RAE: "No."
EVAN: "Who'er you talking to...your friend?"
RAE: "No."
EVAN: "A honey?"
RAE: "Ya."
EVAN: "But...a gwirl (girl)...a honey...is not there?!"
Evan was so confused...she was talking, but nobody was there...not a girl (which is most commonly called a 'honey'...apparently) not a boy...nobody. And she made it clear she wasn't talking to him either. It was pretty classic.

Raegan can't get her helmet on...and this is how it went:
I asked: "What's goin' on...did your head grow?!
Raegan replied...in a frustrated manner: "I DON'T KNOW...I'm not upposed to be like a girrafe!"
[head...neck...its all the same]
_______________________________________________________________________________________
This one is good. So, we are at Shawn's practice, just running around, and Rae sits down by me...and rips a big one. We laugh. Then she starts to tell me about a girl who tooted real loud in her class. She was laughing so hard telling me this, so I was laughing too.
I thought it was so funny that SHE thought it was funny...when do they realize that's embarrassing.
So...I asked her in laughter...if she ever toots loud in class.
Her mouth dropped open, and she said 'NO! I hold it in then it goes gone.'
I was dying at this point. We were both laughing. Hard. I know...immature. But it was hilarious. So, I kept it going and asked her, 'where did it go?'
She stops laughing and says...'magic.'
WOW. So funny.
