Mommy is full of ideas that seem fun... to her. To Daddy, they sound like a lot of extra (needless) work. Usually, Mommy and Daddy are both right.Like the time she decided we needed deer feeder corn in the sand and water table. It was super fun... and it was everywhere! There are lots and lots of birds that hang out in our yard now. And the corn got spread all throughout the living room and stuck in our vacuum cleaner... which made it stop working for a while.
Then came the idea to put the playdough and our coffee table in the carpeted craft room. Playdoh that gets trampled into the carpet and dries... not removable.
And the many, many bits of cut up tissue paper to use in gluing and decorating... all over the floor, stuck to the bottom of our feet... everywhere you look, there are little squares of tissue paper. Was it fun? Yes. Is it a total disaster in our home? Yes!
Sometimes, Mommy smiles timidly at Daddy and asks if he knew what he was getting into when he married her. He always reminds Mommy that on the third day of knowing her, she ran a car into a light pole and totalled a car. He knew exactly what he was doing.... for better or worse!
Love, Avery
Yeah! Katie got her very own car! All of this cold weather requires lots of crafts, and clean-ups.
