She makes me laugh!

I just wanted to jot down a couple of funnies from this week with Neen.

Because she ALWAYS makes me laugh. Just look at that face!!

Growing up I cheered for many many years. Sometimes it was my whole life, and I even cheered in my sleep. The other night Trin was showing me some of her "gynastic" moves, and when she was done I asked her to show me a cheer. I guess she didn't know the kind of cheer I was talking about because, as soon as I asked her she raised her hand as if she was holding a glass and said "CHEERS" I thought it was hilarious, and laughed harder than i have laughed in a long time. Love that girl!!

The other night Neen woke up at 12:30, with pillow and blanket in hand, so I let her come in the room with Mason and I so she could go back to sleep on the floor. She was curious about the sun, and this is how our conversation then went.

Neen: Mom, where is the sun?

Me: Neen, the sun is asleep, now you go back to sleep.

Neen: But where does the sun live?

Me: Well,....we live on a planet, and the planet moves. During the day our planet, Earth faces the sun, and at night the planet moves to face the moon. So right now the sun is under the Earth.

Neen: No Mom....the sun lives on the mountain.

Me: You are right Neen. I don't know why I would have thought any differently.

Again, I thought this was funny because the mountains here spread across the whole East side of town, so in the morning the sun rises in the East over the mountains. So fun to see how these little ones minds work.

One more thing I almost forgot. One day this week Neen looked at me and smiled. I asked her why she was smiling so big, and she said "I just love your face Mom!" That alone made my Mother's Day!! I truly love being her Mom.
