Killing Monsters One Day, Dancing The Next

Abi has spent the last month learning about David and Goliath in her sunday school class.

This week, on the one day that we weren't too sick to go to daycare/work, abi informs me that now that she is going to be a big sister, she can "kill" monsters all by herself.

abi: "I know how to kill them now"
mommy: "you do?"

abi: "yup, you just need something big to smash them with!"

mommy: "really?"

abi: "yup. ORRRRRR, a rock"

mommy: "a rock eh?"

abi: "like David. He took a rock, put it in his thinger and shot the giant dead...BUT, David had God to help him with that...sooo, I guess God can teach me how to kill monsters too"

mommy: "glad that's what you've taken with you from your Sunday School lessons"

abi: " me too, thems monsters can be scary!!"

=================================================================== Today. June 10. One day before my "baby" turns 5.

Well, my hormones are WHACKED! I spent the entire morning and most of the afternoon in tears. EVERYTHING made me cry! From saying good-bye to abi this morning before she went off to dance, to having lunch with family and being "overwhelmed" by the love my daughter has around her! Yup, just call me mushy!

The recital was today. Abi did amazing...for a four (practically five) year old. We did take a video, and I am hoping to post it shortly...if not here, then on my facebook page. We will also post some pictures of the monkey in her outfit, as Billy had MAJOR shaking issues with the camera...really...I'm nauseous from watching it!!

I will post tomorrow as well to mark the fifth birthday. WARNING: I'm pregnant and my hormones are twisted, so I'll likely be all over the place and crying as I type it.

Peace,

D
