I am so missing the kids this week! They are at their Dad's for spring break. It's too quiet! It's funny how the things that usually drive me nuts about the kids suddenly become much more charming with they aren't here! And **gasp**! Could it be those are the things I miss most when they are gone!?! For instance Gracie does not speak, she sings, loudly ALL DAY long. We'll be sitting at the dinner table talking about the days happenings and she will suddenly burst into song. I'll ask her a couple times to please lower her voice and she'll keep right on singing loudly lost in her own world of song. She'll just keep singing louder and louder and more dramatically until finally Mason Kaylee and I will shout "Gracie!!!!" all together. "What !?!?!" is her very annoyed response. How dare we interrupt the artist mid-song!! Or Kaylee how she is not lacking in self-esteem department. Ex: This past Christmas we went to Walmart to get Kaylee some supplies for a school project. Well Gracie and I saw some candy canes and turned on the isle to go look at them. Kaylee grabs the cart and steers it toward the supplies " No Momma me first". Teasing her I said " Why is it always all about Kaylee, Kaylee, Kaylee?". She did not miss a beat. She flashed a smile and answered,"Because I'm fabulous." I laughed so hard I almost dropped the candy canes! And Mason! What can I say about him? The boy can cook! Hand him a recipe and he is good to go! Oh and he is too funny sometimes. He has a quick wit with a hint of sarcasm. One day I was trying to replace a toilet seat and was having some trouble so, he offered to help. He goes into the bathroom and says "Hang on I have to assume the position", so he proceeds to kneel down in front off the toilet and pull his jeans down just enough so the top of his butt crack was showing.He smiled and me a said "Ok, now I can work on the plumbing". Whatta goofball! *Sigh* I gotta go clean house so it will be decent when they come home!

I can't believe how big your kids are getting!!!!!!! They are sure cuties!! I would miss mine too if they were gone for a whole week. I LOVED the fabulous comment! Precious!
The pictures of the kids are adorable! :) It will be fun to see more of them now that you have a blog. :) I tried to call your mom one day months and months ago, but the phone number that I had memorized from long ago was no longer a working number. Tell her hi, and that I think of her often.
