Ahhh, now I get it!

Yesterday Logan slept until almost 10 o'clock.  For him that is very late.  He and Jon had a conversation about it later on. It went something like this:

Jon- Wow, you slept a long time.

Logan- Why didn't you wake me up?

Jon- Well, I thought maybe you were growing.

Logan- ?? What do you mean?

Jon- Well,  kids sometimes sleep a lot when their bodies are growing.

Logan- That's why the kids that have to wake up for school are so short.

The downside of teleporting

Logan and I had an interesting teleportation conversation today. It went like this...

 

Logan- Don't you think it would be awesome to have the mutant power to teleport. You could go all over the place, like i could teleport home from the car really fast.

 

Me- We could visit Grandma and Grandpa too!

 

Logan- Grandma and Grandpa Marshall? Yeah, and we could go in the hottub.

 

Me- That's Uncle Steve and Aunt Jen.

 

Logan- It would be bad because some kids would be naughty and teleport out of church when it got boring.

 

Me- But their parents could go get them.

Logan- Then they could keep teleporting from place to place so their parents couldn't catch up with them!

Me- Would you do that Logan?

Logan- No, but I might when it got long and boring ask if I could go home real fast and get a coloring book to bring back with me.

 

In other news, I went to the store with two young girls yesterday and spent most of the time dodging spitballs (Thank you so much Grace Bible College mission team for sharing that gem with my kiddos.), speaking in a British accent and trying to drop curly fries from the top of my nose to my mouth. All said and done, fun was had by all!

Frogs and babies

I bought lechuga today because we were having tacos with the parents. When I took the lettuce out to chop it up, I found a stowaway.



It's a coqui, and I'm glad I saw him before the chopping began.

We had visitors for dinner. One was especially sweet.



Logan and baby Arianelis

Anyone else notice how soft and sweet baby heads are? And they smell so good!

After dinner friends of ours called to let us know they were on the way to the hospital to have their baby boy, so I'll have another baby he's to smell soon.

The best part of waking up...

I sometimes wish I was a coffee drinker. Mostly because it smells really good, and I like coffee cups. You know, the big ones with cool designs and handles. I don't understand why I don't drink it. My parents have a pretty strong habit going. Perhaps because it tastes disgusting.

Last month I found another reason to become a drinker. We went to an old coffee plantation in the mountains, Hacienda Buena Vista. It was so peaceful and beautiful. I wanted to donn a long white dress and feed chickens while sending the children off for firewood and to bring the cows down from the upper pasture. I think I could really enjoy the life of a coffee farmer. As long as I didn't have to drink coffee.








By the way, does anybody know how to finish the phrase at the top?

The good thing about tae kwon do is

that you can do it anywhere.



Gymnastics too...

We have friends visiting

from Hungary. So we decided to go up the mountain with them. So much fun. I love mountains and climbing and swinging down like a monkey. With accompanying vocals of course.
