Stitches & Witnesses

I am still laughing...
Let me explain.
Monday, cluts that I am, I walked into the door. Not into the closed door, but into the half way open, side of the door, with enough force that I needed three stitches on my eyebrow. And I now have a deep purple eye lid that is spreading more into my nose every day. Well ordinarily I would have doused the shiner with Hollywood amounts of makeup to cover it up, but I cannot get the stitches wet until tomorrow so I am sticking with big sunglasses to cover myself.
So this morning I get a knock at the door. It was unsolicited so normally I would not answer but today I had the window open and Halie was already waving at them so I decided to answer. It was a very nice lady and her son. They were Jehovah’s Witnesses. She starts telling me all the goods about their beliefs, and, here is the funny part, said it really has helped her in raising her children, and (pauses to stare at my shiner) has helped her to have a good, healthy marriage!
Luckily I had to leave to get Sierra from school, but I am still amused!

My Big Girl!!


Sierra started kindergarten this week! Part of me cannot believe she is that big, and another part of me cannot believe she is that little! She is so excited, there was not a stich of fear in her, only excitement. How would that be?

I asked her if it was as good as Preschool, and she replied "even better" and I asked her if she liked her new teacher as much as her beloved preschool teacher, and she said "even more" I could not be happier.

We made a back to school cake for Sierra & one for Halie because she desperatley needs to be included in whatever Sierra is doing.


I think Halie is the only one who is not happy that Sierra is going to school. Halie is insanley jealous, to the point of being pissed off! She starts a singing class next week, and man is she ever excited. Today after we dropped Sierra off Halie tried playing by herself and then said "Mom, my queese (may I please) go to my singing class now?"
