Two Little Funny Comments

I just have to share:

I took Abby to Target to buy her cousin London a B-Day present. I asked Abby what she wanted to get London. "A Barbie". Of course! Why didn't I think of that? So we head over to the Barbie section and Abby says,

"I'm going to get London an immodest Barbie."
"You mean a modest Barbie don't you?" I casually correct her.
"No Mom, an IMMODEST Barbie!" she answers back with annoyance.

And then she promptly picks out the Barbie with the two piece bathing suit on for $4.95 and throws in Ken too. I guess Immodest Barbie needs a Ken to oogle her all day long!

The other little funny happened yesterday in my Primary class. You know this will NOT be the last time I comment on what my 9 & 10 year olds say because they can be pretty darn funny!

One boy in class (who will remain nameless to protect his identity) and who is quickly becoming my favorite said that he had stayed up until 1am the night before reading and he was soooo tired! Well I had to ask him what he was reading of course and he said, "TWILIGHT!"

Hee-Hee. It has even got the interest of ten year old boys!

Now for the best part...........
In sharing time this same boy was leaning on the chair in front of him with his eyes closed. I asked him to sit up and be reverent.

He said, "But I'm sooo tired from staying up all night reading THAT book! It's so addicting!! I just have to know what's going to happen in the END!!!"

I have seriously been laughing ever since!

The Best Book

Holy Moly! Monica gave this book to me to read for book club. I was eh (shrug a shoulder)....... Mainly because I haven't read a good book in a long time so I wasn't in the mood to start another dud. Well, this is not a dud! I could not put it down! I'm am carrying it with me from room to room, in the car, everywhere I went. Seriously! I read it in two days and yes, my kids were neglected - ask them, the house was a mess, no T.V. - just totally immersed in this book.

Yes......it's THAT good!

Today I was on her web site wanting to know who this girl is. Check it out here! Then Monica, Mindy and I talked about it for most of the five hours that we were swimming today. Sorry book club girls. We couldn't wait! Brooke - you ARE reading this book! I'll bring it over!!!!

We decided that when we go to book club we need to bring a picture of "our" Edward and Bella. Who we think they look like. Example. Mindy sees Jude Law as Edward. I see a Calvin Klein model or an Abercrombie and Fitch dude. Too bad they never have very many clothes on or I'd try and post a picture. Anyway, I think it will be fun to see the different views.

O.K. enough of that. School ended today. I am actually excited for the kids to be home. I think we will have a fun summer. We are going to do a lot of de-junking, organizing, playing, swimming, reading and who knows what else. I'm sure the girls have a list. They always do!

So an end to a good day! I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Summers Here!
