Not surprising....

Austin was more interested in the candy & fruit snacks (also candy in my book) that he received today than his new tidy-whities (just kidding, he only got sweaters), and Justin was more interested in the trash from the gifts. I can only hope and pray they will always be this easy to satisfy.

I forgot to post a week or so ago that Justin can climb our entire flight of stairs now. Great! NOT!!

Austin latest conversation piece deals with heaven. He will tell you that when he dies he will go to heaven to see Jesus. When you reply in any way, he then tells you he doesn't want to go to heaven. Then starts the conversation of why he really DOES want to go t heaven ONLY when he dies and so on and so forth. It never seems like what comes out of my mouth was clear to him. But when you start to make it TO simple for him, the true meaning is lost. And so, we will continue to have these "over his head" conversations for as long as he is interested, and eventually, it won't be so over his head. I have already realized he understands and picks up much more than I think, or wish sometimes. But this would be a good thing to "pick up".

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF OUR DEAR READERS (the 3 of you know who you are).

I haven't seen these yet but if you are not familiar with them you might like the TAG memory books from Founders.org They have some excellent recommendations.

They are designed to begin at age two. I'll be looking to get them by August of this year ;)
