Deep Talks with Abby

Ok it's been a week since we have been here and I've been sooooo busy. Unpacking. It is an endless battle. Or it appears that way. I have 3 rooms finished. The boys room, the girls room and the guest room. None of these rooms I use. All the rooms I use look like a bomb blew up in it.

I am hoping to really finish the kitchen area tomorrow. I'm trying really hard to get things done before my parents arrive on Monday. It's great motivation.

The kids have been loving school. Jacob stayed home "sick" today. Not sure what was bothering him but I think he was pretty tired. He went to bed last night at 7 and slept till 8 this morning.

Abby was so excited he was here to play with her today. She came in while I was soaking in the tub and we had this little conversation...

Abby - "Mom, I want to marry Jacob."

Me - "You can't marry Jacob."

Abby - "Why? I want to."

Me - "He's your brother. You can't marry your brother."

Abby - "Oh, then can I marry Noah?"

Me - "No, Noah is your brother too."

Abby - "He is? Who can I marry then?"

Me - "When you are older you will find a nice boy who will marry you."

Abby - "I want to have orange flowers when I get married."

Me - "Ok, I think that would be great!"

Abby- "I'm older now."

She's such a smart and funny little girl. While I love that she goes to school and I get a little bit of time for me, I really love how her little mind works, and I really love hanging out with her around nap time.

Love love love my kids.
