Monkey See Monkey Do

Did your mother ever tell you NOT to put your tongue on a pole in the winter time? I remember my mother telling me not to do it and I went out and did it. Why is it that children do things that they are told not to do?

Well Mr. B was at school the other day and on the announcements in the morning they said "do not put your tongue's on the fences or poles outside at nutrition break". Well Mr. B did what he was told not to do. At nutrition he went out to play and thought it would be a good idea to stick his tongue on the fence. (Just because he was told not to). Well the teachers and kids all surrounded him and watched while the teacher pulled it off. And no, the fire department didn't come, like in the Christmas Story. When Mr. B told me the story after school, he was so upset. He said that one of his friends told him that half of his tongue was gone. He was mortified.

This story was told in the car while we were waiting for Jay after work and even though Little Missy is almost 3, she must really pays attention to everything. Because the next day while at my sisters house we were on our way inside and I hear this blood curdling scream, and see her entire mouth wrapped around the porch railing. I has to drop everything and run to her rescue. Using my hot breath on her mouth we were finally able to pull it off. Little Missy's words were "half of my tongue is gone".....Monkey see monkey do!

So how do I start this new phase of my life in blogging? Well I guess I'll start by telling you all that my life is crazy. I have 3 kids and a husband who works really hard. I have a gecko named Max and a dog named Lady. I work part time, and in school full time. I also will be starting my volunteer work in the next month or so. So when I say I live a crazy life I mean it. My children are fantastic kids, and my husband is pretty cool too.

I guess I will let you know a bit about my children. Big A is 13 going on 30, and right now is into boxing, which changes frequently. He is in grade 8 now and looking forward to grade 12 graduation. LOL... Mr B is 6 and in grade 1, and loving it. He is our little man who wants more and more freedom every day. Little Missy is our 3 year old who is our chatter box. She started walking at 10 months, and I believe she is the reason we stopped having kids. LOL... Lady is new to our lives. She is a Jackapoo and so full of energy. She loves to chew. Needless to say half of Little Missy's Barbies are amputees now. And finally Max is a Crested Gecko, who does nothing but eat crickets and takes up space in my living room.

So this is it for today, and I guess I'll get on here a few time a week. Oh and thanks to my sister who is a professional blogger who got me all set up here. I hope I do you proud dude.
