Jordan

Joyful, cheerful, and full of zest
Ordinary can not confine her or keep her from
Reaching for the heavens she is a
Daughter of God
Any obstacle can not stop her achieving
New and better things in this life

She scrubs floors better than I do!

Jordan this past Saturday, ready to leave for her last summer at Camp Dry Gulch

Parents just don't get away with anything....

This afternoon my hubby was in our bedroom catching up on Burpees* for his Burpee* challenge. Sweet little 5yo daddy's girl walks in....

"Daddy, what are you doing?"

"I'm doing Burpees."

"MOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM! Daddy's doing Burpees!".... turns to Daddy... "Daddy I just told on you!"

I was laughing too hard to enforce the "No tale-bearing unless someone's physical harm is imminent." rule.

Sorry honey. I don't know why she felt she had to tell on you. I'm guessing Burpees sound to much like burping.....

* For those of you who don't know, a Burpee is an exercise that is a pushup, then a jump.

Minor Musings....

Jordan and I were having a friendly chat this morning while we were doing the dishes. Some of the coversation went like this:

Jordan: Mom, I'm going to have babies when I grow up.

Mom: That's a good thing. And it's good to wait until you grow up and get married to have babies. Babies need a daddy.

Jordan: Uh huh... you know how many I'm going to have?

Mom: No... how many?

Jordan: I'm going to have 6 babies. Babies are fun and easy to take care of...

Mom silently grins.... yes babies are fun, but not always easy. But I won't burst her bubble just yet....
