Bedtime
Abegail had a tooth pulled yesterday...so we told her to put her tooth under her pillow and the tooth fairy might come to take it and leave her some money. She was SUPER curious about the tooth fairy all day. Question after question..."Daddy, what does the tooth fairy look like? What will happen if I wake up while she's there?" Then after about the 15th question, I realized it was probably a bad idea to even mention the tooth fairy. By 8:30 last night, EVERY child was scared to go to bed because they were terrified of the tooth fairy creeping into their room while they were sleeping!! Abegail put the tooth under her pillow and then refused to sleep in her bed. She wanted to sleep on the floor...and then so did the other two. An hour and a half later, I walked into their room and A & E were asleep in E-Man's bed with the blanket pulled up over their heads. And Annie had sneaked away to HER bed. I asked Abegail this morning if the tooth fairy came. She said...

I was hoping for a picture of Daddy going through the basement window head first, but this is nice too!

Way to go E-man! Did you like baseball? G'ma wishes she could be there with you to go to the baseball game too. Love you. G'ma R.
ReplyDeleteYes, Nancy...that would have been nice. But the fact is, if there HAD been someone inside there to take a picture of me coming through the window head first....I would not have needed to go through the basement window head first in the FIRST place!! :-)
ReplyDeleteTo the rest of you who have no idea what we're talking about...don't ask. it wasn't pretty.
E-man is a total crack-up! It is really good to see such big smiles on Abigail's and E-man's faces!

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteI've been following your adoption and have enjoyed your blog!
We are adopting two little boys from Liberia through AOH.
We had received some pretty bleak news today regarding the state dept. and adoptions in Liberia.
Could I email you and get your take on it, not only from an adoptive parent's standpoint, but as a reporter as well?
Thanks, Denise Horrocks
