Monkeying Around

We have just learned to do a flip off of our "monkey bars" in the back yard. There's a big difference in the way that I do it and the way my brother does it. I do my flips with perfection. My goal is to always do it the way I'm supposed to do it. You can see how proud I am after my perfect flip. Please disregard the heart panties.

My brother, on the other hand, does his for pure entertainment.

Ms. Rose

This is Ms. Rose. Ms. Rose is many things to us. She is the art teacher at our school. She helps us make all kinds of beautiful pieces of art that we insist Mama keep for all eternity. Her creativity is endless. She's even started giving doodled ideas for t-shirts for Mama to make for her.

Ms. Rose wears super cute jewelry that we just love to look at. She makes it herself. She also fixes my hair in cute french braids whenever I'm having a bad hair day. She's basically like the coolest big sister we never had. Mama calls her a hippy. I have no idea what that means.

Most importantly though, she's the love of Jackson's life and Ms. Rose calls him her Love Bug. That's right...Mama is no longer the center of his universe. Ms. Rose has taken her place. Jackson talks non-stop about marrying Ms. Rose. Mama says that if he marries Ms. Rose, he has to go live with her, and she will have to make his dinner and pack his lunches in the morning, and help him get dressed for school in the morning, and wash his never ending pile of dirty clothes. Jackson seems fine with that as long as Mama can come live with Ms. Rose too. I think it's a good idea for my bubba to go live with Ms. Rose and leave Mama all to myself. Of course, I'd have to visit regularly to make sure that Jackson was being well taken care of.

Our Last Day of Health


This Saturday we spent the evening going to see Miss Joni. She came into Houston for a quick visit, so we popped in to say hello. Her mom's name is "Mrs. Jackson," which is so funny to us. Why would a lady have the name Jackson? There were dogs to play with and chili to eat, and we had a great time.


Well, since this day, one of us has been sick every day. Mama can't keep up with who was sick on what days, but she does know that we have not both been to school on the same day once this week. It's getting kinda old for all of us. The cough is one thing, but the fever really has us down. Today we are both with Gigi. Thank goodness this is her Spring Break! Mama had really hoped to do something fun like the zoo one day this week, but since we've been sick and she's missed 2 days of work this week, we're gonna miss out. She's ready to get her happy kids back though.
