I'm a clown fish!

Quick story. We were all sitting at dinner Wednesday night. Jenny was saying that she is a princess. So then Joey said he is the King. I asked Nicky "Nicky, are you the Prince?" and he furrowed his brow and yelled:

"I'm a clown fish!"



Obviously, Finding Nemo has been the movie of the month and he said it just like Marlin did in the seen with Dory when he said "This isn't funny, and I know funny....I'M A CLOWN FISH!"

We all cracked up laughing - the things my kids come up with!

Kind of cute...

Very hectic day yesterday. Up at 7am, Mommy and me at 9:30, Work at 11, drop kids at Toniann's at 12 (thanks again!), plant sale at Joey's school 12:30 - 3:30, back to Toniann's at 4pm and then all the nighttime rituals.

Anyway, as Jenny does, she bugged out when I left her at Toniann's yesterday, only for 5-10 minutes but it still kills you.

When I got back to To's to pick her up she said "Mommy, you're back" and I said "Of course, Mommy ALWAYS comes back."

So this morning when I was leaving for work - she did her usual "Mommy, don't go nowhere." when she first woke up and I told her I had to go to work but Daddy was staying home. As I was leaving, she said "Bye Mommy, I will see you later because you always come back!"

It was so sweet - she is my little buddy - I wanted to pick her up and take her with me but I thought that would be counter-productive.

I don't know how her separation class will be this summer or pre-school in the Fall. We shall see but hopefully she is turning a corner on the seperation anxiety thing.

Talk to everyone soon.

If I don't post again:

Happy Mother's day to All old moms, new moms, step moms, soon-to-be moms and everyone else!

Happy Mother's day Mom - we will see you on Sunday!

Love,
Jenn

Joey's communion


Well, it was definately a wet wet day! The weather called for rain only later in the day so my sisters and I were up till 10pm the night before setting up the tent and tables for the party. Long story short.......rain from morning till night!

So, we jammed everyone into my house and had a nice time anyway. I didn't get alot of pics...by the time the ceremony was over, Joey was ready to play with his cousins and they didn't allow pics in the church. So here is what I have:
