There are certain moments in this Momma’s life that my memory is tested harder then any of my days behind an HR desk.
Where’s Doras brush?
Where’s Elmos blanket?
I want Marthas House (a book). Where did you leave it Ella? Find it… she replies.
And the list is endless….my mind needs to take a picture of every movement my children make in order to remember where each of their most precious items have been placed (more like forgotten about until they want it again).
While trying I do know these days will someday end so I try to remember as much as I can and fullfil the endless list of requested items as it makes them happy. Afterall, when they are happy so am I!

We tell Ella that when Cooper gets alittle older he’ll go to preschool. Just a bit ago we were talking about what Ella is going to bring for Show & Tell… she looks at me and said “When you get older you’ll go to preschool. I’ll share my puppy (her show & tell item) with you Mommy”!”
Again innocence of a child…in her eyes I am not 32 years older than her. I am simply her Mommy!

Cooper handed me a block but it kinda turned into more of a toss and accidently hit Ella.
Ella turns to Cooper and with her pointer finger pointing wildly she informs him that he does not throw toys and if he does it again he’ll go to TIMEOUT.
I love how she is ready to abide the rules when Cooper is in the wrong but will manage to forget the rule applies to her too!

Im thinking of buying a grape vineyard…..I believe I’d make a fortune. We spent another $10plus dollars on grapes this week which more than likely will only last us through Wednesday! My kiddos love fresh grapes and I dont want to deprive them of their yummy goodness but every week it seems that grapes are the most expensive item we purchase at the store!

A positive of Ella getting up 3 hours before Cooper is that I can drink a cup or two of coffee out of an actual mug. Once Coop is up I have to use a travel mug as he hasnt learned to leave cups/mugs alone.
Today is a day where the small things sometimes outweigh the big and make the difference!

Playing with Coopers cars… I start to count them. I said: 1,2 and Cooper followed by saying 3! Hes learning to count! YAY COOP!
