Funny Weekend Happenings

By -
I am terribly sorry for not giving a FullerTown update in over a week. It has been a very busy week around here. I will share some funny things that have happened. There is never shortage of funny here.

1. Yesterday, at church, a lady asked me what shade my hose were. She said something like, "Your pantyhose are just so natural-looking." I wasn't wearing hose. My freshly-shaven legs were as natural as it gets.

2. This morning, I went to get Paul from his bed. He normally wakes up and plays in his bed until someone comes to get him. This morning, I didn't hear him playing. He typically will throw everything out of his bed. The pillows, the toys, the blanket, everything except himself. This morning, when I arrived on the scene, everything was on the floor, including his diaper!!!

3. Our girls are becoming more and more like best friends. They play together so well. Last night, they were playing like one was the Mommy and the other was the sister. Then they would switch. They were going grocery shopping, wearing my Sunday shoes and carrying their pink fuzzy purses. They bought milk, diapers and peanut butter. The milk and diapers are always welcome but I'm not so sure about the peanut butter issue.

4. Our children have been given a lot of Valentine candy this weekend. They are loving it. So am I. I am glad they don't like Snickers bars. And I have no shame in finishing a piece of candy they have discovered their palette doesn't appreciate.

On a final note, my saving grace these days is Lindt Milk Chocolate truffles. One $3 bag lasts 2 whole weeks. These truffles are not to be chewed or swallowed. You just put one into your mouth and let it melt down your throat. NO SWALLOWING ALLOWED. One of these sweet balls of goodness pulls me through the difficult times of being an at-home mom to rambunctious preschoolers.

You oughtta try it sometime.

The truffles, that is.

P. S. I received exactly what I wanted for Valentine's Day!!! He is DA BOMB!!!

On Valentine's Day 2007 Patrick and I decided that we would not get each other a gift. This was the first time we had made such a deal. I did pick up a card for him and filled it out. Valentine's Day was on a Wednesday and we really didn't see each other much until after church that night. He came home exhausted. We had our little family of five all together in the Family Room and I handed him his card. I had signed it the way I usually do with an extra note on the very bottom: P. S. Baby Boy due to arrive in September. (Now, I didn't know for sure he was a boy, but I had a feeling) Patrick FELL INTO THE FLOOR!! Fast forward 7 months. I was very busy getting ready to open WEE Love Academy, the weekday preschool ministry at church. I was thinking that I would get the Preschool started a few weeks then the baby would come. Well, Preschool started on Tuesday, September 4, 2007. It was a great day and I came home energetic! I thought nothing of it just busied m...

Pretty...

Hello There! There is something that has bothered me for years. I have begun to do better, and encouraged others to change their ways. This is it... Why do people almost always compliment little girls on their appearance first? Little girls are held to a higher standard in regard to their appearance and little boys are held to a very low standard regarding their behavior. This baffles me. I know you've heard it, probably even done it.  What's the first thing most people say to a little girl? "You're so pretty!" "Your dress is so pretty!" Why not compliment how compassionate & respectful she is because you just witnessed her let an older person get on the elevator first? Brave because you see the band-aid on her arm from a doctor visit? Smart...maybe she has a book in her hand! Funny...did she just tell the best joke you've heard all week? Creative...does she have an ornate hairstyle?  Or an outfit you would have never ...
