DARE graduation

Ethan had his DARE graduation Thursday night. Way to go! We are proud of you and your classmates!

Reality Mother's Day

Sunday morning in the Hays kitchen:

Boys: Happy Mother's Day, Mom!

Ethan: Happy Mother's Day, Mom. I really love you.

Me: Thank you, sweetheart. I love you too.

Ethan: Here is a gift for you.

In the gift bag is a tootsie pop sucker, a pack of fun dip, and a chocolate covered peep ( repurposed from Easter and the candy bowl.)

Me: (hugs and kisses) Thank you - how sweet!

Wesley : (grumpy look). Ethan! That's my peep! (grumble, grumble)

Rich : Wesley, wasn't it nice of your brother to include you in the gift?

Julie : (just smiling and holding her laughter inside and thinking how funny it is sometimes to be the mother of boys.)

Happy Mother's Day all!!!

Mustache, part 2

     I went back out with Ethan and then my mustache fell off!  Then I was walking around some more and I got some big, bulgy eyeballs.  I couldn't see very well and I kept running into trees.  Then I fell in the lake! Then my eyeballs fell off too.

Mustache

     I was out with Ethan, who was hunting turtles, and I decided to grow a mustache. A big grey one like a rock. And it felt really uncomfortable. It was like having a rock permanently stuck on my face!

My first poppy of the season

     One of  my first posts when I started this blog last year was about poppies.  Guess what?  They're back again!  Poppies are one of my favorite flowers, reminding me of my childhood.  I think the boys are as excited about them as I am this year.  Ethan has already counted nearly 40 blooms, miracles in tiny oblong packages waiting patiently to explode into beauty.  Yay!!!
