Children of the King

My friends and I in "Children of the King" performed before church services last night. I told my mama that my heart was beating really fast when we were getting out of the van to go in. I did really well until a few seconds into the third song, then I had a little meltdown and had to go sit with my mama and papa. Mama and papa were very proud of me for making it through at least a couple of songs, though. I'll try to sing more songs next time.

Just Another Day at the Zoo...

Mama and Papa took me to the zoo today. It was my 3rd time there in 8 days. I really like Bonzo the monkey. Mama pushed papa around in a wheelchair part of the time, and almost dumped him out on more than one occasion (she claims it was always an "accident," but I'm not so sure...one time, after getting stuck on a bump that she could not get over, mama backed up and went real fast and still didn't make it over the bump...the front wheels stopped, but the rest of the wheelchair didn't...). Anyway, I got to ride the train and the carousel and play on the playground before we left. Then we went to Culver's and got to eat outside. It was a real fun day.

The Good Humor Man

Hello, this is Kyle here on Ethan's blog. Ethan heard the ice cream truck coming down the street the other day, and wanted to know what it was all about. We walked (I hobbled, he walked) down to the corner to stop the truck and make a frozen treat selection. Ethan finally pointed to what he wanted, which was a bomb pop popsicle. I told the guy , who asked "uh, which one?" I thought to myself, "What do you mean, 'which one?' What kind of good humor guy are you? Is this your first day on the job or what? A bomb pop is a bomb pop." So I pointed to the picture, he stuck his head out the window and looked at it, and then returned a few seconds later with some huge, Sears Tower sized popsicle about the same time that I realized I had ordered the ginormous $2.00 bomb pop instead of the $1.00 "bargain" model. Oh, well. We enjoyed it...

Happy Mothers Day, Mama!!
