Hilarious

 When I went to the Bathroom Yesterday

Me- (Hollering into the LR)- "Conner, you forgot to put the Toilet Seat down again."
Conner (Who has came to my bathroom door to further our conversation) "Are you tired of that?"
Me- "Tired of What?"
Conner- "Me not putting the toilet seat down?"
Me- "Well, since you asked, I am tired of you not putting it down."
Conner- "Well, I am tired of putting it down for you."

All about Bees


For the last two months, the science topic in the Starlight room has been honey bees. They have been learning all about them and studying them. Today, our good neighbor, Keith Rollins, went to daycare and did a presentation on honey bees. Keith became a Bee Keeper a few months back. He will collect active hives from his landscaping customers properties and transplant them to another property. He collects the honey and bees wax and they are very good in helping his flowers.

Keith did a heck of a good job. He brought the bee suit, some live bees, fresh honey, and a bee house. It was a very hands on presentation and the kids got very involved and asked a lot of questions. Ms. Andrea was so happy with the guest speaker. He also left a real bee house for the kids to paint and decorate and he will seal it and put it at one of his customers houses.

Thanks Keith for donating your time and knowledge to the Starlight room at Deaconess Children's Enrichment Center.








The girl in the orange is Conner's newest gal, Julia.
Isabelle is still #1, but you gotta have a back up.

Little Minds

Today on the way to daycare....
Conner- "Mommy, why is your hair falling out?" (We have to remove my hair ball from the shower drain every night before he can take a bath.)
Me- "Well, I guess because I am under a great deal of stress and I am getting old."
Conner- "Well, sick Jamie's hair fell out and you said she is very sick and on medicine.
Are you sick mommy?"

Oh my, what a tear jerker. Conner thought his mommy had cancer.  He was so worried.

Conner's Michigan Vacation 2012

Conner, Steve, and Tammy went to Michigan in June for Vacation. We stayed with Aunt Elaine and visited. We had a full week of Grand Rapids Children Museum, John Ball Grand Rapids Zoo, Days at the Beach, Lighthouse visiting, Trolley riding, Sand Dune Jeep Rides, visits to Grand Haven and Pentwater, and a lot of family time. It was a great vacation with nice weather. He is still talking about it and especially missing his Aunt Elaine.
