another first

a few weeks ago princess announced her tooth wiggled!! WHAT??? you are only five. but sure enough her lower front tooth was quite wiggly. for a couple of days she would not eat much, but couldn't wait for it to come out.

well, frankly, i'd forgotten about and i think she had, too. yesterday, hubby and i had to spend the day in indy. my dear friend was a willing spirit and took my kids for the day. not too bad. the girls had preschool and of course would play but then she had to get mapboy plus her 4 other kids and have them all home doing homework, feed them all, then drop my 2 off at my sister-in-laws! she is a good friend:)

anyways...hubby and i were just pulling into arby's on our way home when my cell phone rings. i see it is dear friend and figure she was calling to tell me the kids were great and at their aunts. well she did tell me that. then she asked: "um...did princess have her tooth this morning?" huh!?? i tell her i'm pretty sure she did and she said mapboy said he was pretty sure she did, but the tooth was gone and nowhere to be found!!

so we are 99% sure the tooth came out with the apple slices and went down with the apple slices. what is it with my kids eating their teeth!? when we got home to get them, she looked up at me with the cutest toothless grin! she is very proud and made sure we wrote a note to the tooth fairy not to take it out of her tummy but that leaving money would still be nice! so the tooth fairy cooperated and princess was thrilled to find the prize this morning.

oh those firsts...it seems like there are fewer and fewer of those each day, but this one, well, i guess i'll have to scrapbook it!

me, on politics

i despise politics. i never liked it, but i married a man fascinated with it. a man who wanted to be part of it all...and was, briefly. boy were our eyes opened... anyways...it seems like this election has several hot button topics. one of which is universal healthcare. my cousin started a blog called politics for mom and there have been several heated debates going on. i was reading several comments on healthcare. and frankly i was bothered! now, i don't know that a strict universal healthcare is the answer, but i do know that we have now doesn't work for the average person. here is our story.... hubby worked in a small business - 3 employees at the most that i can remember. we paid 1/2 our insurance..until it came to the point where our half each month was twice what we would pay if we were on our own. but for the owner it saved him money. so he agreed to cover ours in full. we were very grateful. i also know at times, that because of the healthcare cost, it was a struggle f...

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
