The latest as of June

Well, yesterday I discovered that Big Bird is actually a guy.  It kind of freaked me out.  After a lifetime of believing Big Bird was a female it kind of shocked my very core. 

 

Amist sesame street watching I also realized that Elmo and I have something in common, and no it is not hairiness.  If there is a melody we can’t sit still, we both have to harmonize.  After I heard him harmonizing correctly he won my respect and got my vote as the main character to entertain Lanette.   I used to be a huge Cookie Monster fan, but I have found that I am irritated by his misuse of the first person  and his one dimensional thought process ie “me want cookies”        

 

In other news there is a great book that I have been reading, so far I have enjoyed it.  It is now in paperback, so half price.  Lanette just saw this picture on here and shouted “Daddy’s book” which is pretty accurate unfortunately Kira will read 10 -20 books in the time it takes me to finish the one, so my book becomes very familiar to her since it is out for months.     

Speaking of books I don’t know if I should be worried, but Kira is now reading a book entitled “Finding Mr. Right”  I’m not sure if she wanted to confirm that she had actually found him (or if she should still be looking ha ha).  It is kind of ironic and comical to see a married woman reading a book with that title.  She assured me that it was a fiction novel not and not a self-help book.   We had a good laugh.      

     The other day I authorized benefits for a woman who had 4 children from 4 different men and has a new boyfriend.  At what point does a person figure it out?  It was sickening to see this precious gift so throroughly abused and conversely see amazing LDS couples who would give anythng and have paid thousands of dollars to have kids into their wonderful gospel-centered homes yet are not given that opportunity in this life.  

     Personally I would love to bring as many spirits to our home as we possibly can.  We can offer them so much since we have the restored gospel and a safe, stable home with parents who love each other and the Lord.  Children are the greatest source of happiness.  I made a paper airplane for Lanette this morning and a couple minutes later she came up to me and gave me a little kiss on the cheek and said thank you.   It is so worth it!  

Well I got to go make breakfast!
