I haven't been doing that as much as I want to, and some of the things that come out of their mouths or the things that they do, really are priceless.
Take Cammie for example...the other day while I was otherwise occupied, she took the jar of peanut butt one of her siblings so kindly left open and decided to use it as styling gel. Fortunately she took her arm out of the sleeper before delving into the peanut butter up to her elbows and smearing it all over herself. This has earned her the reputation of now being into her "busy" phase and requiring "constant supervision". Another incident at Grandma's house has also earned her another title of "PF". She loves to flush things down the toilet...unfortunately something went down the drain that shouldn't have and an incredibly valuable thing was lost...but worthless at the point it was flushed. Good thing we love the little rotter.
Brooklyn is also at a priceless age...the things that come out of her logic filled brain just make me laugh. conversations with her are quite funny. She was playing with her favorite stuffed Hippopotamus earlier today while I was cleaning up. I came across one of her little pet shops, picked it up off the floor and asked her to put it away...she gave me a look, took it and I figured that was the end of it. When I found another littlest pet shop, I again called her over and gave it to her. This time she sighed, took the toy and said "Mom, I just don't have time to be doing this right now. I am busy taking care of my Hippo." She stored the LPS toy in her bed and went about doing her thing.
My brain doesn't store enough in it anymore. I know these moments will be gone soon and I would like to share and store more moments from all five kids in this blog more often, so one day I can come back here and remember these days.
"I have truly made a mess, Mommy."
