Thoughts of a passionate, quick-to-laugh, often-anxious, hamsterwheeling brain.
About Me
- Lindsey
- wife.mom.runner.MBA student.registered nurse.music lover.ice cream eater.peaceful feminist.project tackler.learner.avid reader.
And I quote:
Elijah: (running in from outside) "I have to go poo!"
Me: "Ohhh-kay. Sounds like a good plan."
Elijah: (pausing at the bathroom door to smile coyly and wiggle his eyebrows slightly at me) "It is. It's one of the greats."
Malachi: (sadly, after David left to get in the shower) "Daddy? Daddy. Mo' (more)."
Me: "You want more of Daddy?"
Malachi: (hanging his head dejectedly) "Daddy. Mo'."
Me: "Dane, I love you to the moon and back."
Dane: (looking me right in the eye, with words just pouring out of him) "Me too, Mom. I love you. I love you more than butterflies and I love you more than playing outside and I love you more than caterpillars and I love you more than a toy and I love you more than all my toys." (then he just hopped and skipped outside)
Elijah: (eating a banana) "The best banana I ever had was....February 22nd."
Me: (laughing) "How do you remember it was February 22nd?"
Elijah: (sincerely) "Well...I don't remember EXACTLY, but I know it was in the 20's. Man, that banana tasted like CANDY."
Haven: (with an oh-well kind of smile and a shrug) "Today at school Ms. Hagood asked what my talent was and I said my talent was getting hurt, 'cuz...it is. I do that a LOT."
Elijah: (coming to me randomly, before church) "Mom, who's Uncle Benny?"
Me: (a little confused) "We don't have an Uncle Benny."
Elijah: "No. Benny."
Me: "We don't have an Uncle Benny."
Elijah: (really emphasizing the words and speaking very loudly, like I'm not hearing him) "No. BEN-NY!!!"
Me: "Yeah. I got it. I don't know what you're talking about. We don't have an Uncle Benny."
Elijah: (mystified) "We don't?? Well...THAT'S a bummer." (and then he just walked away)

Yea!!!The pigtails! You're so cute Haven! Did Dave really get a bike? Wow Lindsey are you a GREAT wife! ;)
p.s. I love the idea of celebrating firsts. I may do it, too!
Great pictures, Lindsey! Haven has some cute hair! You are such a great mom! You're right--you've got to hold onto those golden moments of being a mom--that's what's makes it all worth it! You're a great example to me.
That was really cute.. I can't believe that David got a bike... You are a nicer wife than I am.....
First the mustache...and now a bike. Are you sure Dave doesn't need a therapist himself?? Just kidding!! Love Haven's hair! We miss you guys.
You are one crafty lady! One question about the bike, where's the side car?
