Michael's words of wisdom....

Michael: "Mom - how many more days until school starts?"

Me: "14 days Michael. Why?"

Michael: "I hate school. I don't want to go to school. I don't like my teacher."

Me: "Why would you say that Michael?"

I LOVE the thought process he goes through......just make sure you aren't drinking anything while you read his reply.......






Michael: "Because when I go to school it interrupts my play time. I NEED to play ALL day."

oh the poor dear. 'guess you didn't tell him that once kindergarten is done there are no more all-day plays days left - ever! :-)

He's going into second grade - which is why he even more mad about not having play time. He remembers first grade and being in school ALL day! :)

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
