What’s better than….

What’s better than watching your little sister eating pop-rocks?

Being able to enjoy pop-rocks also!  How fun!

The Unibrow

Grace has just learned what a unibrow is. 

“Mom, I think I have a unibrow.”

“Um, you do?”

“Yah, just look.” She starts rubbing the skin between her brows.

“Grace, I don’t think you have a uinbrow.”

“Yes I do,” she insists.

“Do you want one?”

She looks at me with a half smile.  “I don’t know.”

“Well, if you want one now, you won’t when you are a teenager.”

“Why?”

And of course now I start laughing.

“Just you wait.  When you’re a teen I’m SURE you won’t want one.”

“But why?”

“Trust me, you just won’t.”

It’s a 10+

You know, Grace really surprises me sometimes.  She has been chasing butterflies and moths picking flowers and blowing dandelions.   

So when a friend was in the driveway talking to me Grace comes up and wants to show us something in her hand.  I'm expecting a butterfly, a flower, or maybe even a frog or cricket.  And when she opens her hand, there in all its sticky slime is 8 or 9 baby slugs!  Oh my gosh.  My Yuck Factor went up to 10+

I didn’t have my camera there that day but I did today.  Here’s Grace and one of her little pets.

I’d much rather see her with a handful of frogs or crickets!
