Yesterday was a good day. I had the opportunity to be with my kids all day. Nathan had school work that had to get done but that didn't take long. After that we started our day. We found ways to make messes in the whole house. We even were able to fit in a nap. It was a great day. The kids were on a roll yesterday.
Abby decided that she was going to get potty trained yesterday. She took her diaper off and handed me a pair of underwear and said, "Me turn." So we did. Savannah took charge and made sure that Abby went pee-pee in the potty every time. Guess what, she did just that. She didn't wet herself at all yesterday. She was proud of herself and of course I was. This morning she got up and straight to the bathroom and then came to me. Proud, Momma, so proud.
Savannah yesterday and recently has become very bossy. She takes charge over everything. We were getting dressed for our day and doing hair and teeth, you know all the stuff to make you look good. Savannah was in the bathroom looking in the mirror combing her hair. I heard her talking to Abby and saying, "Abby first you must comb your hair to look pretty. Then you look in the mirror and do this." She was checking herself out. I was just smiling. Then she told Abby, "Ok, now it’s your turn to look pretty. Don't forget to smile." I was laughing.
Lastly, my Nathan. He is growing so fast. I can't believe how fast life is passing and how big he is getting. He still has good days and bad but the good always outweigh the bad. Yesterday he was so proud of himself as well. He was able to play a computer game all the way through without help. He has gotten so good with using the laptop mouse that sometimes I think that he is better than me. I didn't watch TV. yesterday but was on the computer most of the day. He even showed me the train set that he wants. And cost doesn't matter, how about $150? Not bad considering that he wanted a set early this week that was over $5000. I am not kidding on that. The prices of toys today are crazy.
MUST READ PART: If you didn't find me bragging about my kids interesting then read this. This part is about the life of being a parent. Jonathan came home and took us to Subway last night. When we were Subway last night, this girl came in just talking ugly to the servers that made her sandwich and was speaking profanity to them all the while she was on the phone. Then she walked out and left. When we were paying for our food she came back and was behind us doing it again still on the phone my I add. The server was nice and told her that she needed to watch her mouth because there was kids here and that she will get assisted as soon as she calmed down and let them finish with us. She wouldn't stop. Finally, Jonathan got on to that girl. I told her to calm down or leave that she wasn't going to ruin this evening for us and she needed to at least be considerate for the children that were in the restaurant. She said something under her breath and Jonathan was right there ready, but then she turned around and said nothing. The rest of the night when we were in there she was on her phone, but she didn't get out of control and didn't use profanity. THANK YOU, JONATHAN. I am so proud of you for standing up for what is right but standing up for your children. Many parents wouldn't have said anything. But why should we live in a world that is surrounded by people like that. I am sorry if we are paying for service or food, then we shouldn't have to listen to that garbage and our children shouldn't have to see that. The Subway staff was good but sometimes it takes a PARENT to stand up and say something and stop the madness.
Now, I am going to enjoy the day with my family. We are going to church this afternoon then the Pastor and his wife are coming back to my house for dinner. Tomorrow we should have something great to say about the Word of God.
