Echo Egan MennearGracie was still asleep after Coda went to school. I had Oreos for breakfast.
Echo Egan MennearTonight I got 15 minutes with my husband on the porch swing... and then we saw two sets of big brown eyes peaking out through the blinds.
Echo Egan MennearTonight I had little patience for my four year old who bit holes in her garlic bread and the placed it on her face as a mask.

Echo Egan MennearJustin came home today and Coda said "Dad, did you get me a pee pee cover?" He's played catcher a few times.
While watching the game a few hours later Coda said, "oh...ow! Good thing he had a cup on!"
My six year old is catching on to the game of baseball. I LOVE IT!
Echo Egan MennearGracie, who is only four, just came and snuggled up to me in bed. I asked her how she slept and this was her response. "Not good. I had lots of bad dreams. I even had one about a ghost, but then I prayed." and she folded her arms to show me.
I am so grateful to live in this country. Grateful that we can teach our children to pray when they need help. Grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who hears those prayers, no matter how big or how small. And I'm grateful for my to beautiful children that understand all these same things.
Echo Egan MennearCoda: "Mom, will you check my bum for a bruise?"
Mom: "Why do you want me to check your bum?"
Coda: "I think I have a bruise."
Mom: "You think you have a bruise? Why do you think you have a bruise?"
Coda: "I think I fell down today at recess."
Mom: "You think you fell down or you know you fell down?"
Coda: "Well, I know I fell down."
Mom: "Why did you fall down?"
Coda: "Well, I think some kids tackled me."
Mom: "You think some kids tackled you?"
Coda: "Well, it was a fumble."
Ah-Ha! Now the truth comes out. There just has to be a lot of thinking and questioning, but eventually the truth comes out.
And yes, he had a bruise the size of a golf ball on the side of his little bum cheek.

"Mommy!"
I dragged myself out of bed and walked through the house to Coda's room. When I rounded the corner and he saw me, he opened his arms up. I sat on his bed and he gave me a big hug.
"Are you okay?" I asked him.
"Yes. I just wanted to give you a hug."
My chest wanted to burst as I walked back to my bed. I don't know what happened in his sleep to make him want to give me a hug in the middle of the night, but I loved it! I love my little man!
