My phone is working now. WEll I can take phone calls anyway. My phone ended up being broken, but I am using my old one. (the one that J walked into the lake and ruined...yeah it still has issues, but it takes calls.) And tomorrow is my birthday. I love my birthday. It is a day all about me - I had to teach my husband that because his family apparently didn't do it that way. I could have sworn everyone had a day off on their birthday like we did at my house. LOVED IT! and now my hubby is catching the hang of it too! He is also quite taken with the idea himself for his birthday. I LOVE DECEMBER!
Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.
