monday's moment

Cute fish
+ slippery sink
= monday's moment

okay, so I haven't posted a "monday's moment" for quite some time. I just got off the phone with my cute lil' sis and I was laughing so hard I had to share this with you all.

One night Chrissy had a little goldfish friend waiting on the porch for her- we've yet to figure out why they left it or even who left it. It just had a note about taking good care of the fish....so she did- well, she tried. It lived for a while, it even had a cute name- "fish". She left for school one day and saw that the water was so dirty but didn't have time to change it. So when she got back home she attempted the change. While transferring the fish from one container to the other it slipped and landed in the sink... half way down the drain! I can totally imagine her freaking out, because I totally would too, about how to get this fish out of the drain and back into some water. Well, to make a long story short (or really, a short story long, because I ramble...) She barely grasped the little guy and he slipped down the drain. Thank goodness we know all drains lead to the ocean and "fish" can go be friends with Nemo.

*Note: I said I was laughing hard, and I realize now that makes me sound like an evil fish killer (or something of the sort). I like fish, I really like fish. I don't want to see fish hurt and I usually don't laugh to hear about their deaths either. So I am sorry for all you other fish lovers out there who did not get a smile out of this- but come on, just imagine seeing a fish half way down the drain and the other half flappin' his little fins in your sink. Sad... yes I know. But I think we're a little over populated in the fish department anyways...

monday's moment

There have been many great things about today so far...
-the sun is shining bright
-the laundry pile is shrinking
-the bathroom is clean
-ziggie is cute...just like every other day :)
But with all of that greatness there is something even greater.... something that makes me SOOOO EXCITED I can hardly contain myself!!! Yep- that's because she's coming and I only have to wait one more day! Tomorrow close to this time I'll be driving to the airport to pick up the one, the only, the beautiful: MOMMY !

Just in case you weren't sure- I CAN NOT WAIT!!! We have so much fun together- even if all we do is sit and stare at the wall. She always knows the right thing to say, she makes me laugh and is always there for a good hug. We love to watch movies and eat popcorn together, we love to laugh together, we love to play with Mekena and Kirra, sing funny songs, go on walks, eat and eat, AND she's a really good helper with organizing.... so she's comin' at the perfect time! Get ready mom- my office is calling your name!

HURRY UP- get on the plane and get here already!!!!! YEA!!!

P.S. Ziggie's really excited too- he's jumping at the chance to lick you all over the face!!!

monday's moment

ok- so lately Monday's have not been liking me very much. They are often a hard day for me because I enjoy the weekends and being able to spend time with Jeff so much and then Monday starts and it's back to work. Well, I've been trying harder to find things to do on Monday's that make them more enjoyable for me because I hate the thought of dreading a new week when really I'm grateful for a new week.... so I'm starting "Monday's Moment" where I will write about something (sometimes plural) whether big or small that make my Monday a little brighter....Today there have been quite a few things like Mekena giving me a health lesson and telling me "my lungs help me breathe Auntie Amy. That's why it's not good to smoke, it makes your lungs black and icky and then they stop working." (thank you Dr. Mekena.... thank goodness I don't smoke or she'd be givin me a lecture!) or hearing Kirra count to 10 for the first time... but my conversation with Chrissy just topped it all and it's only 6pm. I'll spare you the details of all our silliness but bottom line.... she's a hot mama who gets free dessert and attracts all sorts of guys! (even the ones who aren't typically attracted to girls) I love her- I mean come on now, who wouldn't she's absolutely beautiful!
