Conversation of the Day:

Carissa: Mom, I'm in love with Ian.
Me: You're in love with Ian?
Carissa: I'm in love with Ian.
Me: You can't be in love with Ian. You're too little to be in love.
Carissa: Mom, I'm not little, I'm FIVE.

how cute! Hannah's not in love with anyone, and doesn't really like boys, except as playmates (good thing, cuz there are 7 boys in the neighborhood and only 3 girls - Hannah, a 1 y/o and a 14 y/o.). good luck with that!

Book Club

Living in Scappoose for so long has finally meant we've put down roots. We've met a lot of people and are involved in the community. I've made friends, mainly through work and scouts. But what's most precious to me here, besides my own family, is the book club girls. Book club was started about 2 1/2 years ago and started out with a group of scout moms and a few of their friends. Our numbers are up to 7 now and we meet monthly, rotating houses so everyone hosts. I really love how book club makes me go out of my way to read something I otherwise wouldn't or to see life in a different way. I truly love my book club and look forward to our meetings, which involved food, book talk and idle chit chat. The book club girls are my friends and I'm so lucky to have them.

What Was I Thinking?

Today was an official "What was I thinking?" kind of day. Started out early, as I had to go on a field trip with Chase's class. We drove into Portland on a VERY noisy bus, the driver missed the freeway exit for the mall and had to drive an extra 15 minutes around the downtown area to get us there. Then we get there and I find out that I have 6 kids in my group. SIX KIDS. And just me to watch them. In a busy mall (and definitely the least safe in the entire metro area). And not only do I get six said children, but I also get 3 of the MOST OBNOXIOUS kids in the entire class. The ones you have to constantly monitor for keeping with the group, touching things, making loud whirring noises all the time (don't ask me what that was about!?!). Then we had $40 total (which the kids had earned by themselves, by the way! Wahoo to them) and had to wander the mall in search of the best deals on gifts for other kids their age. They are donating them to a charity as gifts for needy c...
