Yucky Boys!

I would like to start off by saying that my patience with my kids is low today. What can I say? It happens.

In the car Carter informed me that a little girl at school thinks he is yucky. He didn't understand why and kept asking me why girls think boys are yucky. I said, "Becuase you are." Carter talks about lizards and snakes at school, poots (I know this because I have witnessed it and he acted like he didn't know what the smell was at his table), runs around and gets sweaty, has dirt under his nails, etc. Boys are yucky. I then told him that in about 8 years girls would no longer think that boys are yucky and in fact, boys will be on their mind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I know this for a fact. He got really excited about this and I am pretty sure he would like to fast foward about 8 years.

Margo is very into being a princess the last couple of days, princess costume and all. She wore her princess dress and Cinderella shoes to Petco last night. I don't know where she gets it from because I certainly don't push the princess thing. She doesn't say princess though, she says "frincess". If anyone has a dress on she will say, "Oh, you a frincess?" I love it. Jeremy kept Margo most of the night last Friday while Carter and I went to the Relay For Life in Harrison, Arkansas. I think she made him play baby dolls for like two hours. He text me and said, "Our daughter is amazing, so smart, and so funny!" That made me smile because she so is!

We are just hanging out enjoying summer. Carter kind of likes to be entertained to much and I guess I deserve that because I used to do the same to my mom. I feel mean sometimes telling him to "Go find something to do." But, they need to know how to find something to do without being told what to play all the time right? Tonight we are going to my brothers for a cookout and I am really excited because I love being around my brothers and their families. :) Tomorrow we are swimming with a friend, Thursday I am being interviewed on the radio as a Hero of Hope and Carter has a birthday party to go to, and Friday the kids are having their pictures taken. I need to rest just to keep up!
