Words of a Three Year Old

We have began to potty train our three year old son. ( I think it is easier to house break a dog ) To motivated him , I will give him an M&M if he goes . This seems to work sometimes . He still does not want to wear pull-ups . I think he is jealous of his little brother , so he wants to stay a baby.
Since , I have now introduced him to the world of chocolate , he will say " Ma Ma , chocolate will make it all better ", whenever he wants a treat. I think he has the right idea , chocolate seems to make it all better , when things get a little rough . :)

NO BUGS ON ME !

Monday was the day from hell!! Lucas had meltdown after meltdown . So, when his daddy came home from work , I sent him outside with his daddy . I thought I would let him run out his energy before bedtime .
The baby was not feeling well , he is cutting teeth , so he was not happy that day as well . I was getting him ready for bed while Lucas was out playing with the dog . My husband was out putting an exercise machine together in the garage . It was not long after letting Lucas out , I felt I needed to go out and check on him . He was talking to his dad and playing , so I came back inside . A few more minutes went by and I felt I needed to go back out there to see what the little guy was up too . Good thing I did !! He had the bug spray and was spraying on him . He saw me and yelled " Help me , Help me ! " It looked like he may have sprayed some in his face and maybe his mouth !!!! Not taking any chances , my husband called 911 while I ran inside , washed Lucas off and rinsed out his mouth . The operator looked up the brand of bug spray and found that it did not harm humans . Thank God !!!! I gave Lucas a good bath , brushed his teeth and put him to bed . My husband hid the bug spray in a better place . Hopefully Lucas will not find it again .
You can watch your kids very close , think they are OK and in a blink of an eye , they can get into trouble ! Wish we had more eyes to watch them . Thank God for that still small voice inside and that I listened to it !

MODERN FAMILY

I remember Sat. mornings when I was a kid . I would get up early so that I did not miss Scooby Doo or Bugs Bunny . Mom would always make Pancakes . Around 9:00 , we would clean the house and have lunch ready for my Dad by 1:oo ,on the Sat. he worked. On the ones he was off , we would get the car packed up and head off to my Grandparents house in Colorado . Those where fun times !
Now I get up to find a whole new world . The family is on the computer , texing someone , on the cell talking , listening to I pods or playing PlayStation . And most do not even know what Breakfast is . I try not to let my house be ran like this . But this is how most Americans are on week-ends now days . Gone are the family times , gone are them going to church together . Most can not even name the 10 commandments ( or even three of them ) But they can name all the beers out there . This is very sad . We need to get back to the basics of life !

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO OUR DADDY ! WE LOVE YOU !:) JEREMY AND LUCAS

HARDEST JOB YOU CAN EVER HAVE

I am so sick of people saying that I don't have a "real" job and in it is not fair to my husband , that I stay home , while he "works ". ( Mainly my in- laws ., they keep pushing for me to go back to work . ) Staying home raising my kids is a real job . And I would say the hardest one I have ever had . ( I have done lots of retail , cosmetology , Rx Tech , been a pre- school teacher , been a piano teacher and a babysitter ) So, yes , I have " worked ".
I love staying home with my boys . And if you don't think I work , well here are some of the hats I wear . I am a teacher, a cook , a nurse , a child care person , house cleaner , seamstress , a counselor , animal care taker ( we have a cat and a dog ) , gardener , handy man , wife , a mother , a lover , and a friend . I am up at 5:30 ever morning and go to bed around 10:oo . Non-stop from the time I get up until the time I go to bed . So, I say ..... stop saying it is not fair that I don't have to work !!!!

FLASH BACKS

For some reason , lately I have been thinking of the past a lot . Maybe it is the fact that it has been 19 years since graduation ; or summer just has that effect on me . Summers where the best !!! I think the summers of my high school years were by far the best times ever ! Sometimes i wish i could go back . Of coarse i would chance up a few things . Like what would have happened if that high school crush had worked out for the summer ? Would memories still been bittersweet ? Or what if i had met my husband back then ? Would we have gotten married at a younger age ?
The summer I had the best time , was my 16th year . Me and my best friend had so much fun !! chasing boys , late night talks , dreaming of Jon Bon Jovi , putting orange cones across her street , going to Connie mack . So, much fun !!!
Now I seat and listen to Bon Jovi's new song " Do You Want to make A memory " and Nickel back " Photograph " and think back to those good 'ol days .
I hope my boys have such good times and memories when they grow up . After all , life is about making memories !!

DREAM A LITTLE DREAM

I have the ultimate fantasy !!!! Being able to go to the bathroom by myself ( my 3 year old always manages to come in ) and to take a bath without the help of my 3 year old ! That is my biggest and most desired dream at this moment and time . :)

A CHILL DOWN THE SPINE

One thing I love about living here , in Arizona , is all the history . There is so many cool things here . I love the fact , that the " real " cowboys and Indians where right here . Like Whyte Herp , Doc Holiday , Geronimo , and many others .

I live in the Black Hills , in a small miner town called Morenci . As you can guess , there are lots of ghost stories . The town down from me , is Clifton . It still looks like a ghost town today . Down in the cliffs is an old jail cell . This is where the outlaws were held . This was the first jail here in this little town . You can walk down to it and take pictures today .

My sister in-law came down here to visit us from PA . in March . So, I took here down to see this jail cell . This was also my first time to walk down into it . It was the creepiset place I have ever been into . I swear that there were ghost in it !!! It was cold and just gave you those chills like you get from watching a scary movie . Moths were everywhere !!!! And you could still see the skackels !

Here are some Pictures of my sister in -law in it .
