Funny stuff...

OK I must make it quick, I'm taking a tiny break from hours of photo editing!!! Just wanted to post this before I forget how funny it was. Today Noah and I were discussing that it's almost Lilly Grace's First birthday (can't believe it...) but anyway Noah informs me that he wants to get her a Mermaid Dora Doll to go under the water (which he won't admit but I think he wants to play with!) Anyway, the funny part is that he says, "And I know what I'm going to write in her card, I Love you LIlly Grace, I'll never give up and I'll always save you from the bank robbers." OK how sweet is that, does LIlly have the Best big brother in the world or what???

Another funny, but slightly sad note...Noah is trying is his own little four year old way to recover from the death of little Mel (the puppy). He has come up with a solution. He wants three puppies. That way, he explains, if one dies, he still has two, and then if another one dies he still has one. Poor little baby, he is a little obsessed with death since Mel's untimely passing...

We also have spent part of the day in our submarine (the toyroom) looking for mermaids (his sister) and putting on our scuba masks (fake fire helmets). Noah has an imagination that will go for days. This was after he built a fairly accurate "chute" for his rodeo bulls. He made my little plastic man be the clown that kept the cowboys from being trampled by the bulls. I'm not so experienced at being a rodeo clown and he kept correcting me in my cowboy rescue technique.

He told his Dad today, "Well Dad, I am certainly not your amigo!" After Travis regretfully informed him it was bedtime...

The Parsley family will be trying our best to have a yard sale this weekend and my little entrepreneur has decided he will sell lemonade. He says that he will not pay me a paycheck for helping in his stand but at the end of the day I am to write him one. Is it bad that my four year old is already quite adept at finagling money from his Mommy?
