I tell the girls they can't play the computer on Sundays. This past Sunday, after we got back from church, she squeezes by me as we walked in the house and she runs into our computer room and I hear her say, " I'm going to play computer....oh, man I forgot I can't play computer. I HATE SUNDAYS!" And the melodramatic person that I am, I gasped and said," what, Oh, Emma!" and then she just burst in to tears and she said, "Ahhhhhhhh! I didn't mean.. I mean... ah!!!!! I don't like Sundays but I still LLLLLLLLLoooooooove Jjjjjjesus!" She so hilarious. I told her she can play the computer, if she wanted to. I had to run back out and as I was walking out I saw Emma playing downstairs and she didn't play the computer.
I hosted a farewell party for a dear little sister last Saturday. It was a bit hectic and I lost my wallet again In the past year, I've replaced 3 atm/credit cards. One, I left in the atm machine, and the other two are floating around the house. I can't put anything in children's reach b/c they take and they play with it and they dont' put it back and they forget where they left it. I'm thinking Jonah's the culprit. So since Saturday, I've been ransacking my home in search of my wallet. I just replaced my card last month. I wonder if they record, how many cards one person replaces. Today I gave up. But I'll randomly ask Jonah, if he saw my wallet. He'll light up and lead me to my cellphone. My purse.... the diaper bag and then out of no where, he comes and says, "here it is!" And he hands me my wallet. He's such a sweet boy but man, he's testing his boundaries all the time.

hurray for talking! of course he's a late talker- he has two big sisters to do it for him! i was talking to a mom of 3 today, who's 3rd isn't standing or walking at 14 months because her big brothers dote on her and get her everything she wants!
emma is such a sweetheart!
woo hoo! way to go, J! i'm sure it was so frustrating waiting. dunno if i told you, but our Jake didn't speak until well past 3. like RBK said, he had two siblings doing his talking and understanding his needs for him. :) things get a bit easier when they can tell you stuff though, i must say. i'm so glad he found your wallet for you! why do they all love playing with our credit cards?! ugh! :)
btw, i'm glad you're back on blogosphere. :)
yes, ditto on being back to blogging! i missed hearing about your family. glad to hear J is talking and that he found your wallet too! you should give him your old wallet full of cards you don't use anymore. i'm thinking of doing that with ESK because of her curiosity with my wallet...
