Jake (9), Alyssa (7), Zac (5), Tyler (3), Nicholas (5 months)

Happy Friday! This week was filled with Mother's Day activities, playing in the rain and jumping in puddles, making dandelion recipes, and smiling a lot.


1. Me: "I wish I could find that."
Alyssa: "You probably put it somewhere you forgot."

2.  Me: "That's too much toothpaste."
Zac, smiling: "I can't result it."
Me: "You can't result it?"
Zac: "Yeah, I can't put it back in."
Me: "You can't resolve it?'
Zac: "Yeah!"

5. Alyssa: "What if God gave Mom another baby?"
Jake: "That would be amazing."

8. Tyler: "Mommy, we hafta move the couch!"
Me: "I can't. I'm not strong enough to move the couch."

9. Watching Alyssa play with Nicholas and laugh so hard she was nearly in tears.

10. Alyssa, whispering: "Mom, can you hear me?"
Me, whispering: "No, I can't."

Jake, to Alyssa: When you're that old, your hearing is so good you can hear a candle blow out."
