TB picked Brandon up so he could spend the day with us. It was so good to see him! We took lots of really cute pictures of Brandon with baby T and all the rest of us. TB has a slideshow in his entry with all of the pictures there! Tomorrow Brandon heads back home to TN and we'll miss him and his family again.
What a shock to turn on the news yesterday to discover much of our county under water! The flooded towns aren't too far away from us at all. Here in Country Lakes, Heidi's friend Liz said that there is water in her basement. Luckily, we have sand in our crawl space. We don't have a basement and the sand absorbs the water well.
There is more rain today. I'm hoping it doesn't add to the problems people are experiencing in the flooded towns. How awful for them!
How are you keeping your kids busy during this summer vacation?
So far, they are entertaining themselves. On other days: walking around the mall, going to the movies, shopping, watching DVDs together, playing board games
What lullaby do you remember fondly, either from your own childhood or that of your offspring?
I really like “Tura Lura Lura” a lot and sang that song to the kids when they were babies. With Kristin, I also sang that obnoxious Barney song, “I love you, you love me” I would hold them in my arms, singing softly. It was very relaxing for them and for me too and a sweet way to connect with them!
Wednesday Whatevers
1. Can you really learn about yourself from quizzes?
If I take the time to think out my answers I do. Sometimes I am totally surprised!
2. What do you think you feel after you are dead?
Love. That is what I have heard and would like to believe … that there is an infinite love.
3.Who is to blame or credit for the state of our economy?
It’s such a complicated mess I have no earthly idea.
