I love Genius!

My son was sitting on the couch reading a book this morning. My daughter climbed up beside him, and this is how the conversation went: Hailey: "Whatca doin Bondin?" Brandon: "Reading" Hailey: "Can I see?" Brandon: "yep" Hailey: "Who is that Bondin?" Brandon: "That's a picture of Jesus" Hailey: "I love Genius, Genius is cool. I wish I could see Genius. I would give Genius a big bear hug!" I am so glad I happened to be tuned in at that moment, as I tend too often to be caught up in the busy-ness of being a Mom, rather than stopping to enjoy these little moments that make my day. It's just another reminder to stop and smell the roses once in awhile! The laundry can wait, it'll always be there, but these moments will not!

Sleep? Who needs sleep?

So after sending my daughter off to take her nap, and thinking she had complied...this is what I find standing so sweetly atop the stairs: She was playing dress up quietly in her room!! How could I ever get mad at that? Then Dad stepped in and took control:

Quite the disciplinarian huh?
