  Last night Olivia and Lincoln were sitting at the table while Jonny and I were bringing in the food and drinks and what not. Lincoln was upset about not being able to eat yet and jonny told him "just wait for mama, and then we will say the prayer and you can eat" He waited a few seconds, then he folds his arms and says "mama,dadda,shisee..amen" And then starts stuffing his bread into his mouth. Problem solved I guess. He also has decided he wants to go to school like olivia. He puts on his little backpack and walks around saying "school, school". 

   Olivia and I have been reading Coraline...It is a little spooky in a well written way, a cool way. She is really into it and takes the book to bed at night so she can study the few black and white pen drawings in has at the start of each chapter. She is excited to see the movie after we finish the book. She is doing well in school and loves to practice her writing she is always writing and trying to figure out how to spell things that she wants to say.  

happy birthday to Jonny this week. He is 29 on the 26th.  He came up with this cool idea to build these little greenhouse boxes with some old windows I have...so I can start my seeds outside. I am excited...and will post pictures when we finish them. We are planting a garden this year...you know just in case we dont get a job, sell our house and move away.

Hey, this is Carolyn from church. I found your blog through the Cincinnati Ward gardening blog. I just finished reading Coraline too! I really like it and want to see the movie as well. Did you know that Coraline is the book club book for May? Then again, I'm not even sure if you know that there is a book club. Did you? Well, if not, we have a little book group that gets together once a month. It's not a church group, but it's full of church friends! Let me know if you want more details. :-)
