Whoops, I’m still racing around trying to get a post a day 🙂 not doing to hot here! Sam had some of the weirdest ailments. Her latest one is her back hurting. This happened with her neck too. She must have tweaked it and she just moans and moans about it, I feel so bad […]

It finally happened! She is almost 7 and she lost her first tooth. She bit into an apple and it got loose and fell out at night. It was perfect because we were camping with Girl Scouts and it was just very exciting for her. Luckily I found it in her sleeping bag/blanket the next […]

The other day I told Sam that if she ate the crust of her bread, her hair would grow longer. I turned around to the sink and peeked back at her. She looked down at her bread and picked it up and ate the crust. She looked back at me and I smiled. I feel […]

Sam came into my office to tell me something ‘very sad’. She got a ‘Play of the Day’ certificate!! She is such a trickster (she tries to be), I wonder who she got that from? (Anyone who knows my husband is groaning right now.) The only one to get the certificate out of her group […]

When Sam got up this morning, I showed her the Sneaky Peeky photos that DrewB took yesterday. She loved them and I was also showing her who had ‘liked’ the photos and what they said or commented on. Later, we were having breakfast and she wanted to know who liked the photos. I told her […]
