No cute stories tonight. I’m just thankful for two amazing kids that call me Mommy.

Payment

October 22, 2014 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

Shortly after putting the kids to bed, Gillian walked down the hallway and said “I gotta go to the bathroom.” She did her business and started to walk back to her room. She left the lights on in the bathroom, so I stopped her and said “Did you forget something?” She smiled and said “Payment?”… Continue reading Payment

Harry Potter

September 25, 2014 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

A few weeks ago, I started reading John “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.” I did the same thing last year. But he really didn’t really get into it. And it was hard to keep his attention. So I started reading it again. He loves it. He remembers what I read about and questions everything.… Continue reading Harry Potter

Sunday Hugs

September 17, 2014 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

Sunday morning, John came downstairs and immediately asked “Can I watch shows?” Daddy said “Yes.” I said “No.” John said “I guess I gotta pay you.” I said “Yes. I gotta get all my hugs now. Because, I know you won’t believe this, but at some point you won’t want to give Mommy hugs or… Continue reading Sunday Hugs

Tonight I was making my bed while the kids were watching one more show before bedtime. I had them sitting on the hope chest while I worked on the bed. John offered “Can I help you?” Gillian said “She don’t need our help!” I said “I’ve can do it myself. Why can I do it… Continue reading Awesome

My boy

Seven years ago right around 6 am, Daddy and I were on our way back to the hospital. We had gone the night before, but my labor didn’t progress so they sent us home. But this time we knew it was time. So much for knowing, my boy didn’t arrive until 7:13 pm. He changed… Continue reading My boy

Gillian and I had a girls night. No boys allowed! Daddy was working late tonight and John is spending the week in Myrtle Beach with Mimi and Poppy. This morning I told Gillian that we could go out to dinner, just the two of us. She said “Yea. No stinky boys!” We went to Panera.… Continue reading No boys

Lunch

March 27, 2014 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

Most days John takes a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to school. We always tell him what’s available for hot lunch. Today I told him that lunch was pasta. He said “Yes! I’ll buy.” Daddy also talked to him about lunch and told him that there was chicken patty sandwiches on the menu today.  Everyday… Continue reading Lunch

writers block

January 25, 2014November 8, 2016 johnandgillwentupahillLeave a comment

I have writers block.  My kids are wonderful and amazing and normally provide me with lots of cute little stories.  But I have nothing.  The past couple of days have just been typical days with nothing out of the ordinary or special.  While there has been nothing exciting going on in my house, there have still… Continue reading writers block

Oh John!

John has the best comments and insite. Here are a few of my favorite comments from the past couple of weeks: Daddy asked John “Who do you want to help with your shower? Mommy or Daddy?”  John replied “I’ll settle with you Dad.” We have been trying to teach John to say excuse me when… Continue reading Oh John!
