Hey Y'all.

So, the kids are being really good right now so I'm taking the opportunity to write again, what luck!
Lately Jesse's been picking up new words like he picks up germs. The untrained ear may not be able to crack the code, but I'm getting pretty good at it. He's constantly finding excuses to wear a "banna,"(bandaid), his latest kick. And in the last 48 hours he's made me fa (fold) my arms so he can pay (pray) and thank Fa (Heavenly Father) for "Feet" (his Happy Feet DVD), and then for "Piss" (Pig- referring to Charlot's Web). Something else he does (or, doesn't do, really) that I get guilty pleasure from is that, no matter what, he will not apologize to another child. Under any circumstances. Period. He would gladly endure Chinese water torture to avoid the word "sorry" after he's done something wrong. Seriously- he'd rather retire in "time out." Apparently if you're a grown up that's one thing, but he is so obviously superior to other toddlers that he would never ever stoop to such a level. He's also recently developed a problem with the word "please." But that one's pretty easy; he just doesn't get what he wants until he says it- (though I'm usually forced to accept a pitiful, whispered version.)
Matt came home today from his trip. Two days early. Details (and pictures) on that later, in case you haven't heard the story. But it's dinnertime now, so you'll have to wait!
