What every man wants for Christmas!
No, not that! I was having my breakfast this morning and was flipping through a catalog, and lo and behold, I stumbled accross the gift that I believe every man will be hoping is beneath their Christmas tree this year. Meet the Mangroomer, the Essential do-it-yourself Backhair Shaver. Now you don’t have to ask someone else to shave your hairy back, you can do it yourself! Also available are the Essential Private Body Shaver and the Essential Nose and Ear Hair Trimmer. Why not make it a Christmas to remember for that special man in your life and get him all 3! Won’t he feel special…
I love that girl…
As we were leaving my parents house tonight – Ellie asks my sister if she can go home with her. Auntie Tracy said, maybe a different night but not tonight. So a few minutes later as my sister’s family was getting in the car Daniel says “Bye Auntie Tracy, may God go with you” to which my daughter says “God is going with you?” Auntie Tracy replies “of course he is” and Ellie says with all all the indignation she can muster “well why does he get to go and I don’t?” My goodness I love that girl! 
Things a girl just never thinks of…
I arrived home the other night from work and as I pulled on to my street I see my 2 boys age 9 and 7 outside in the yard. I thought it nice that they were outside playing instead of inside with a video game. As I pulled closer to the driveway I see that they are both barefoot (and it was approx 55 degrees) and holding big sticks which they are now hitting at each other with. So, being the concerned mother I roll down my window and ask what in the world they are doing and why they are in their bare feet. To which my dear firstborn replies that they are both sword fighting and practicing karate and the reason they are in their bare feet is that if they kick each other with their shoes on it hurts worse. I have to say that is something that never in a million years would have crossed my mind. I am continually amazed at these creatures that God has put into my life and how vastly different they are. I am trying to learn to speak their language – but I have to say that it is a hard language to learn!
