Carmel...


On Sunday Carmel is coming to live with us! We are all very excited and the boys keep asking me "How many more days?" My friend Andrea is going to Haifa fora couple years and she is entrusting Carmel's care to us!
Here is Luke and Carmel when she visited a couple weeks ago...



Wafffle's is a complete nut! He is about a year and a half. He is full of energy and lots of fun BUT can drive you crazy! He is like a kitten in many ways....I don't know how to explain that...I think Carmel will calm him down a bit (maybe) and He can get her running around...SO Excited!

Mastermind Luke collecting information before taking over....




Luke asked me today:
"Mom, how do you make money?"



I replied:
"You make money by working and then you get paid money...or you can make something and sell it."
I added:
"There are lots of different jobs and you get to pick what you want to do."









He stopped me by saying:
"No...no...no...I mean how do you make money...do you draw it and can you print it on the computer?"





I answered:
"UH............................................................no we don't print money...the government prints the money..it is against the law to make money."

blogging: writing and posting pictures into space.....


maybe someday an alien will post a comment...

too much television....


Today...Luke came up to me and asked me where my "scrap gold" was?


Huh?


I asked him why and he said:


"You just put your old scrap gold in an envelope and you put it in the mailbox and you mail it to the mail guy so he can take the scrap gold and turn it into money."


Really? Wow!

I decided to also ask his twin, Seth. He said:


"You take your old jewelry that you never wear and put it in a bag and send it to them and then in a couple weeks you get money."
I wonder what they would do with the money?

puzzle rules.....

which get broken all the time..

1. No Farting!
2. You can only look at the picture once.
3. If you look at the picture more...you can't work on puzzle...but you can now look at the puzzle all you want and tell everyone all about the puzzle as.....much as you like...unless you are under 10. Then you can look at the puzzle and still work on puzzle.
4. No crying.
5. Try to get the frame of puzzle done first...
6. Joe gets to do the signs.


If puzzle is not too challenging...put it together face down...

There are more...but I can't remember themmm all..

Do you have any?

This isn't quite how I pictured them....


A senior man came up to me at the front desk at work and spooked me out....He told me that his wife who has alzheimers told him that out the window from their apartment there were people across the street dressed in black waving to her...

When he told me that..... it.... freaked me out...he said "of course there aren't any people doing that..it was all in her head..." but was it really or could she see more than us? yikes....

at least they were across the street though...right????
