What I Learned This Weekend

  • That not waiting until the last minute to do your Christmas shopping really is a lot less stressful than waiting until December 22nd to do all your shopping like I usually do. I only have about 5 more people to shop for right now. For me this is major progress folks! Even better, I'm all caught up on wrapping gifts!

  • When your child wakes you up at 5:30 on a rainy Saturday morning and asks you to pretend to be Sleeping Beauty so he can kill some dragons with his sword, it's really easy to play the part pretty convincingly.

  • When you go to a restaurant and your child tells "I'm not hungry at all and I don't want anything to eat" you better go ahead and order. Don't get mad at said "not all all hungry" child when he complains that he wanted a burger instead of the chicken fingers that he got. It's always okay to tell a child that they were out of hamburgers when you mistakenly order the wrong food, because, helloooo, he wasn't hungry anyway!!

  • I got to see my future nephew Luke in 4D this morning and I learned that he is just precious (which wasn't really a surprise) with big chubby cheeks and an adorable nose, and that he is just as stubborn as my brother-in-law Jason!

  • And I learned that according to the rollback price sale signs at Walmart, that the game monopoly has been changed to mono poly. I thought you should know. Have a great day!

And that's all I learned this weekend. Have a great Monday!!

So can you catch Mono from the game?

I like the idea of playing Sleeping Beauty. Can I play too?

Sounds like a good week. Do you think you could arrange for Jackson to tell Jack about that whole sleeping beauty thing?
