Green Soda Sale

(as written to client but wanted to capture memory here. Mike said (after 20 minutes of no sales that i should go put on a bikini)

Had to share a funny story. My boys (ages 7 and 4) decided to have a Green Soda Sale. This is sort of like a Lemonade sale except they wanted to share their special blend of Blue Poweraide, Pink Lemonade and Orange Soda with thirsty people in the neighborhood.

To my delight – people stopped cars, and walked over to bestow $.25 on my hard-working boys. It was pretty funny as my skinny red-head jumped up and down waving a green pinwheel saying “Cowd Dwinks for Sale!”

But the reason I am sharing this is because our best customers were people walking their adorable dogs before dinner. So with every cup, my boys asked “Do you have a dog? How many dogs?” and they handed out samples of Wagatha’s to every dog family that came by. My 7year old decided it was even ok to give to the man with no change. That guy was not permitted green soda, but his dog got some Breakfast Biscuits.

Keep a look out for orders from Bergenfield, NJJ

Lego Maniac

In less than a week, Ian built every single lego set he got on his birthday. Huge car/truck thing, spider, spongebob set and seemingly dozens more. One night Mike tried to finish off one peice and took him forever.

"Hi Guys"

That is what Rory says when she comes down in the morning or enters a room with her brothers playing. Cracks me up.

She also enjoys saying "ye- low" which she pronounces so well. she walks around in her big clown sunglasses inside.

Loves her Daddy. Gives kisses to everyone before bed.

Started Baby shampoo with conditioer few weeks ago.

My favorite new trick is "Yes" where she shakes her head very strongy up and down.

Offense

I think we see nothing at all if we can't see the other side of an argument.

Ian's 7th Birthday

Somehow.
Funny because I recently found my "diaries" from his early years.

He is bright. He is good looking. He is kind, caring, healthy and we love every bit of him.

Here are some notes of mine.. pre-party.
Daron had a great time and played perfectly as usual with Ian's friends. He fits right in. Rory was entertained by Bailey most of the time and sat and enjoyed watching the festivities.

Dream

About the house again. Hidden rooms. And this time a hidden beach nackyard. Small the contractor had added water and thaty meant it was no good for the kids or something. In the corner right under/near the house_ a typwriter my mom said she uses every day

Ponderings

Do your boobs hang low?

Do the wobble to and fro?

Can you tie them in a knot?

Can you tie them in a bow?

Can you throw them over your shoulder

without an o'er the shoulder holder?

Do your ears hang low?
