The Quilter's Adventures: Nine Years... Already!!!

~Kids...They're so Silly~

Chase was playing dress-up and came to the top of the stairs and said, "Look! I'm Jesus! ~pause~ Wait! Jesus has to go potty!!!!" And off he ran!

Brielle asks if she can have some medicine. When I ask her why she says, "Because I have ISSUES!" (I think she was referring to her runny nose and that she needed to use tissues!?!)

Brielle asks, "Mom, Where are we going?" I respond, "Crazy".
Brie says, "Where's Crazy?" I say, "Anywhere we are at the moment." She says after a long pause, "Will my friends be at Crazy too?" I say, "No Brielle, Crazy isn't a place, it's a state of mind." "Oooohhhh!" she says, while giggling.

A rainstorm was brewing outside and Brielle said, "Mom! I SEE thunder!!!"

When pulling into the gas station, Avery asks, "What are we doing? The gas light isn't on!" I respond, "Believe it or not, we CAN get gas when the gas light's NOT on!"

When asked to shut the back door, Chasen responded, "I can't! I'm NOT big!"

Avery asks me, "Mom, where does the water come from?"
Brielle answers, "From the faucet!!!"

Wanting to go outside on a cold day, I said to Brielle, "It's chilly out there!" She says, "Mmmm, I like chili!"

Chasen REALLY wants to be like his daddy! He decided to "cook" one morning and made himself a Saltine and Syrup sandwich... He grabbed 2 saltine crackers, poured some syrup on one, placed the other on top and took a BIG bite!!!

Nine Years... Already!!!

Happy Anniversary to us! It's been 9 years today since we chose to make a life together. What a life we've made! I wanted to take a moment to let my husband know the 9 things I treasure about him:

1~ You make me smile. Sometimes I really don't want to, but you get it out of me! ;0)

2~ You are such a hard worker. You rarely stop working...

3~ You adore your parents. I know that's why you love and treat us the way you do...because of them!

4~ You do most of the cooking... and it's soooo GOOD!!!

5~ You love me for me, no matter what size, and there have been many! ;0)

6~ We have so much fun together! You truly are my best friend; someone I can tell anything to, laugh with and play games with.

7~ You are tender and kind with our children. You play with them and do your best to provide for them. They adore you!!!

8~ You do everything you can to help me maintain our life. You understand how hard my days can be with the kids and household duties. You just jump right in and help!

9~ When imagining my future husband, he was nothing like you! You're more than I'd dreamed of. Reality is better than make-believe(at least in this case Dreamer!) ;0)
