Other than her standard mama and dada and heehaw- which translates as "thank you"- Blessing #6 is a lot of babble without a lot of actual words.

Until she let out a squeal for a drink. B#1 leans over to her and puts her finger over her lips.

B#6 looks back at her, grins, leans in towards her, and says, "Sshhussshhhh."

My therapy session is over... I finished the Awana bags. I guess I will have to find something else to be working on!

Blessing #5's Cubbies bag:




Blessing #4's Sparkies bag:

Blessing #2's Truth & Training bag:

These next two bags are ones that I did last year- I didn't have to make new ones since they aren't moving up in groups.

Blessing #1's T&T bag:



Blessing #3's Sparkies bag:

I asked a little while ago: Who wants grilled cheese for lunch?!

Blessing #6 responded: Waa! Waa! which roughly translates into, "Just feed me! I'm hungry!"

B#4 responded: I do! I do!

B#5 responded, while giving me a wary eye: I want BOY cheese!

First Day

September 1, 2009... The first day of school for a new year! The biggies were all smiles this morning. :)

And this Monkey Moma is all smiles right now. I've got dinner going, housekeeping in progress, ...and over 3 1/2 hours until pick-up time.

...I might even be able to throw in some extrcurricular project time- making some Awana bags for next week.

The Hunky Monkey and I are looking forward to our Wednesday-night date night with only ONE tag-along! At least for the fall semester.;-) Blessing #5 starts Cubbies this year; B#4 moves up to Sparks; and B#2 moves to T&T... that means three bags in need of decorating. But that is a therapeutic activity for me, so I am eager to get started. :)
