I was cleaning the boys room and was getting so mad that they took all the buckets out of the closet. I took all their backpacks away and started sorting toys! Dexter's was next and I am never surprised when my good pair of scissors, magic marker, or credit cards happen to be in it. He was watching me pull things out and started to get a little nervous. THEN...I pulled out David's tape measure. He screamed, "WHAT...HOW DID DAD'S TAPE MEASURERERER GET IN THERE?" I just rolled my eyes and said, "Really?" He just shrugged his shoulders, shook his head and said, "I wonder who put that in there." I find it harder and harder for me to get mad at him when he is so animated in pleading his case!

Joey is my tease...and he teases constantly! The other day at the dinner table he was mocking Mason and kept repeating in a silly voice, "HI MY NAME IS MADON BRYCE...MADON...MADON...MADON BRYCE!" Mason would get mad and say, "Its MASSSSSSON!" Joey would just laugh and say, "Hi MADON!" I have to admit I was laughing pretty hard!

I had a few onions bulbs sitting on the picnic table waiting to be planted and Dexter was holding them up to his eyes...he yelled, "Dad these onions are making my eyes REALLY drippery!"

I was in Relief Society at church and my friend Camille which happens to be one of the counselors in the Primary brought Tia to me and said, "Tia just came up to me and asked if she could have a pair of scissors to cut out the gum that had fallen in her hair before her mom saw!" I started to laugh an uncomfortable laugh and said, "am I that scary of a mom!" Guess so! I gave Tia a hug and told her it wasn't a bid deal and that we would use some super magical peanut butter to get it out!
