I am not quite sure why I have such a hard time keeping up with this blog. I want to a really, really want to! So I have decided that I am going to blog but I might not always include pictures ( I am pretty sure that is where I get lazy about blogging!). So here's to trying!
I have been trying to make some changes in my life recently. As a family we are on a new budget ( I grumble a little, but really it is a good thing!), I am trying to be healthier by working out at least 5 times a week, I am TRYING to be more organized although I am not to sure I am much different in this area yet, I am trying to have a little more patience for my kids ( after all they are children! I cannot expect adult behaviors from them yet!), and I have decided that I can make all the bread our family needs, which is really not as hard as it sounds. So far so good.
Lately I have been amazed by my darling, sweet, Carley. She is a fire cracker! She knows what she wants, how she will get it, when she wants it and nothing will stand in her way. Her new favorite thing to do is trick people. She does not care who it is or if she knows them....she will trick anyone! Her favorite method is this :
Carley- You don't know what is in my hand?
Me- is it your blanket ( it is her blanket, I can clearly see that she is hiding behind her back) Carley - No - its not. Its a toy.
Me- well I can see your blanket
Carley - how do you know ?
This recently happened while Carley was doing some tests. She was asked by the lady testing her to pick the pennies off the table and put them in the box and then hand the box to the lady. Carley picked up six pennies with one hand and then quietly slid 2 pennies off the table into her other hand. She put the 6 pennies in the box and handed it to the lady.
Lady- good job Carley, but we are missing 2 pennies
Carley- no we are not!
Lady- let me see your hand Carley (shows her the hand with out the pennies) Lady - let me see the other hand Carley( shows her other fist)
Lady - are the pennies in your hand?
Carley- no
Lady- then open your hand
Carley - I cant, someone put glue on the pennies and now my hand is glued shut! (opens her hand and pennies fall out) Ha ha I tricked you!
