Miss You

-
Today Michael picked Finn up from Victoria's. When they got home Finn found me sitting at the kitchen table preparing for tomorrow's hearing. When we saw me he came over to where I was sitting and hopped in my lap. I gave him a big hug and he hugged me back. Then I said "I missed you" and he looked at me and said "miss you." I just melted. Then Finn and I had a short conversation. I asked him about the scratch on his knee and he pointed to it. Then I asked "what boo-boos do" and he said "hurt" and finally I asked out he got his boo-boo and he said "fall down." It's neat to see how he is starting to be able to comprehend questions and know how to answer them properly.



Later on in evening Michael gave Finn a bath. After his bath he came running in my office area naked as a jaybird. Finn loves when I make copies. Once the copy is made and comes out onto the tray Finn will take it off the tray and bring it to me. He gets so excited when he hears the copier. He runs over in anticipation and grabs for the paper and fast as he can. Since he was naked I could only post this one picture.

Ghouls at Grassmere

Yesterday we took the boys to Ghouls at Grassmere.  Day started out pretty traumatic for Sam.  He wanted to go out and play.  He started to notice that there were several little worms on the porch.  He was terrified that the worms were going to get him so he sat in the porch swing with me for almost an hour.  Finn spent his time finding worms and then stepping on them.  Michael doesn't like for Finn to kill worms because they aren't hurting anything.  I reminded Finn of this fact and told him not to kill any more worms.  After a few minutes I start to hear more crunching.  I decide to take a different approach.  I told Finn, "Finn - the momma worm is going to be so sad because you killed the baby."  He looks at me and said, "don't worry mom - I'm gonna kill the momma too."  So much for the guilt trip. After a nap, it was time to start getting ready for the Zoo.  We started with the tights.  I bought Finn little girl tights to wear under his costume

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

Spirit Week Day 4 - Board Game day

Day 4 of Spirit Week was really difficult.  The kids were to dress as their favorite board game.  Hurdle #1: Finn doesn't play board games.  Hurdle # 2:  How in the world do you dress up like a board game?  This was one difficult.  Since Finn doesn't play board games I had to think back to when I was child and go from there.  I finally came to "Checkers" - so I spent the night before cutting out red and black paper circles.  It actually ended up looking more like "Connect Four" but Finn hasn't ever heard of "Connect Four" we stuck with "Checkers." Gran picked Finn up from school again today and took him to the library.  Before going to the library they stopped at the house to pick up his library books.  Finn only had two (2) of his checkers still stuck to his shirt.  I found out today that Finn got a bloody nose after getting pegged in the face with a ball and that he didn't get a star today because he didn't follow dir
