A to Z "Z"

Z is for zillions of kisses. My boy is a daddy's boy. If daddy is around, momma is beneath chopped liver! When daddy isn't around, though, momma is queen again. That's when the fun starts. He will come up and give me zillions of kisses. I love it, of course. I also know this won't last forever. I know as he grows up I'll be lucky get a "good-bye mom" as he rushes past. So I will treasure the moments he gives me zillions of kisses an imprint the memories on my heart.

A to Z "Y"

Y is for yyyyyyyy, I'm almost done! I may make this challenge after all. Maybe I should have looked to see if I've been deleted from the list! Lol. I feel,like I'm running out of words, though. I know it's because I've waited until the end to play catch up. I hope I've not bored you and make my few followers leave! On that note, I also want to take. Moment to say thank you to all who have commented. I truly appreciate it! I have tried to comment back, but it's not been easy.

A to Z "X"

X marks the spot! X is the only letter Wheeler can consistently identify right now. And it's only because of Jake and the Neverland Pirates that he can identify it. We now make X's with everything.....pencils, cracker sticks, our fingers and legs. I love it! I love the spontaneous learning. Wheeler isn't really interested in sitting and learning letters and numbers. He's all about rough play, bugs, and the like. It only slightly bothers me he doesn't know the letters. I think for him it's more important he be a kid. He learns so much through his play. He knows what a specimen cup is (for collecting bugs!!!) He can name planets and other objects in our solar system. He recites his favorite books and "reads" the Bible to us. I look forward to more spontaneous learning moments, like when we find that "x marks the spot!"

A to Z "W"

W is for words. I'm not very good with words. I hate that I've gotten behind with this challenge, I feel like my words aren't very thoughtful, or thought provoking. Unfortunately the strep last week got me down more than I knew at the time and I got behind on a lot of things. I often wish my writing were more eloquent. I usually feel like my writing is like that of my first graders. When I really have time to sit and think, I can usually muster up something pretty decent. Times like tonight, when I'm playi g catch up, I feel like a babbling idiot. Hopefully I can get more into this blog and truly sharing my thoughts and feelings.

A to Z "V"

V is for vitamins Our obsession with vitamins kind of follows our obsession with underwear. We started out with Flintstones then he found the Superhero vitamins. Apparently the Superhero underwear and vitamins make you more like your favorite Superhero. You can fight crime better. You're stronger, more agile, and have more superpowers! Too bad this isn't true in real life. Too bad you can't have superpowers just by eating all your veggies or remembering to take your vitamin, I'm sure more of us would be inclined to make sure we had our daily dose.

A to Z "U"

U is for underwear Because underwear is the only word that came to mind that I don't remember reading about. We've had a fascination with underwear in our house since potty training. First it was Toy Story then Cars. Now we are on to Super Hero. You can see the progression of the obsessions through the boy's underwear. I never thought we would care so much about it.

A to Z "T"

T is for tasty I love making tasty treats, as if you couldn't tell from this blog. Last week I made a French vanilla cake with Chcolate buttercream icing. Oh my word, I didn't know you could buy boxed French vanilla cake mix, but it is good. I still haven't tried the Oreo cheesecake bites but plan to do so soon. On the menu for next week is a lemonade cake a friend of mine found in a Better Homes and Gardens magazine! I can't wait to try it!
