We are in the belly of the beast, the beast being moving. Hopefully it will all be over soon. We reserved the moving truck for Saturday morning. While Aaron and I work and pack and work some more, the kids keep life fun.
Maybe it's just me but when Reuben eats carrots I think he looks like he's smoking a cigarette, Cruella Deville style. He keeps holding it with his pointer and middle finger.
We had a conversation on taste at dinner tonight.
Reuben: Lettuce is yucky.
Me: (in rebuttal voice) Reuben, Mama eats lots of lettuce. Look, I'm eating lettuce right now.
Reuben: (gives me an appraising look) Hm. Mama, likes yucky food.
Touche
Sound logic going on there. But ouch, did I just get snubbed by my two year old?
We've been happy that the weather has cooled this week. We've spent most of our time, at Miriam's insistence, outside. When we don't get out quick enough she walks to the door and bangs on it with both hands, then looks at me then looks at the doorknob then looks at me.
A family that draws together, stays together right?

Do you think lettuce is an acquired taste?
Hilarious! Made me laugh out loud, I love Reuben and his self assurance. Abby is the only kid I have ever known who loved lettuce from the first time she tried it.
Good luck with moving! It is such a stressful task but it sounds like your kids are forcing you to have fun still.
I am looking forward to seeing you all in four weeks. oh boy!
I hate moving. Good Luck. Hope you love your new place.
