To-Do List

Tonight as I was putting Caroline to sleep she told me that her throat hurt and asked for a drink. This is usually a tactic she uses to stay up a little later, her throat hurts, she needs to use the bathroom, she needs to tell us something important, or she needs just ONE more hug & kiss.

Here is our conversation...

Caroline - "Mommy, my throat hurts. Can you make me some warm milk and honey?"

Me - "I think your throat is okay. I haven't heard you coughing today."

Caroline -"Well, will you put it on your To-Do List for tomorrow to make me some warm milk and honey?"

Me -"Sure Caroline, I will do that. I don't want to forget."

I couldn't help but laugh at her. She knows me so well. I can't accomplish much w/o my trusty To-D0 List.

Happy Birthday Baby Brother

Happy "Late" Birthday Unc Frank

Love, Caroline & Kenzie

Face Painting

Caroline has been begging me for weeks to do some face painting. And the wonderful mom that I am, I have been putting her off. (not my cup of tea - face painting) Well, today was the day. She had seen a commercial on Noggin about a project for face painting the characters Rintoo and Tolee from the TV show Ni Hao Kai- Lan. She so badly wanted to have her face painted like Tolee.

I have never done face painting before and realized today that I could never make a career out of it or join a traveling fair as a Carney. :) Caroline thought she looked awesome though. Thank goodness.

Finished product - not my best work.

Kenzie had to get in on the action as well.

I just improvised this.

She loved it!

Good Morning

I was lucky enough to wake up to this yesterday morning...

Caroline - "Good morning Mommy."

Me - "Good morning Caroline, did you have good sleep?"

Caroline - "Yes."

Me - "Good, I'm glad."

Caroline - "I'm glad you're my mommy."

That just made my day... all day.
