X Marks The Spot

Tonight at dinner I showed Arlo my wedding ring and pointed out that I had it buffed and polished and admired how shiny it is.  

He asks, "Oooh, you have a pearl?"

I say "No, it's a diamond"

He asks "You found a TREASURE?"

I say "No, but I know a jeweler.  I can take you to the treasure store.  You may look at the treasures, but you cannot touch them."

"And I can see the monies?"

"No, they don't sell money there, but you can see a lot of jewels and gold"

"Is there an X?"

"Well, no, but there is a map"

"Oh.  No.  We need an X.  And we need a ship.  And we need sails.  And we need to pull the string"

"To open the sails?"

"Yes, and then we need to drive the boat"  He imitates steering a big wheel.  "And the X has to be red".  

After all of that I don't think a trip to the mall jewelry store will be anything compared to his imagination!

After seeing the first two...I guess we couldn't resist a third!

Happy Mother's Day!

Yesterday I took a detour from my walk to Charlotte Wood Middle School in Danville, CA.  They have a beautiful memorial rose garden.  Here is a bouquet of sorts to honor all of those Great, Grand, and first round Mothers out there!

Auction

Just a reminder that the auction to raise money for Wyatt's school still has a few days left.

http://www.goldenviewauction.com

I donated two baby-size afghans that are available to bid on under the "Baby" catagory.

This one is made with acrylic/bamboo and is very soft.

This one is 100% acrylic.  Both are machine washable.

Thanks for checking it out!

Mustach-i-o

I would suggest a package of mustaches for anyone needing a good belly laugh at themselves and the ones they love!

This one still makes me laugh.

And this one looks oddly natural!



The Big 3

I greeted Arlo as he woke up this morning.
"Today is your Birthday"
*smile*
"Today you are three years old"
He replied,
"Yes I am"



Very Cool
