WORDS OF WISDOM...

On the 12th anniversary of my 29th birthday I was hoping to come up with some words of wisdom I could share, not in a condescending way but rather in a helpful, "I've been there done that" way. I mean this getting older business should benefit someone right??

However, instead of the list I had hoped there would be, there is really only one thing I can think of to share. It has proved very helpful to me in numerous situations.

Are you ready??



Always, always, always check to make sure there is toilet paper in the stall before you sit down!!

Hey, don't laugh....that's good advice!!

Here's to spending next year growing in wisdom!!

ONE OF THOSE DAYS

First let me say I do not watch this show. I've actually heard it is pretty bad. However, this commercial totally describes the kind of day it's been around here.

A NEW LOOK

I know, I know....Thanksgiving is the next holiday and I can assure you that I'm not forgetting it or downplaying it. Just really feeling the need to focus on the season of Hope (without the change)!!

ALL ABOUT CAMDEN


Camden Camden Bo Bamden

Banana nana fo Famden

Me Mi Mo Mamden.....Camden

In our car, the Name Game is his favorite song to sing. You can bet that if you ever cross our path you will be sung about on one of our many drives.



Camden got his first note from a girl this week. He says it is not a love note just a note from a friend (he took the words right out of my mouth). She is in his preschool class and actually lives right behind us. She made him two of the cutest little pictures I've ever seen. (That's her in the picture.)


This week we went to the pumpkin patch with his preschool class. What a fun afternoon!!


He always listens to music as he is drifting off to sleep. Right now he is listening to a cd with older songs on it. His favorite is Dry Bones (the ankle bone's connected to the leg bone.....). I think he must really ponder the words of the songs because the other day he asked me the following, "You know that song that I listen to that says He washed my sins away?" I said yes. He says, "Well, how exactly did He do that?" This led to quite a conversation, some of which I'm not sure he understood. The good news is that I was able to connect my explanation to the way we give him consequences for bad behavior. I knew he would understand that as he has been getting A LOT of consequences lately!!!



Not sure how one little human being can be such a mixture of contradictions......sweet and cuddly one minute, sassy and naughty the next. One thing is for sure.....he is our Camden and we love him!! (I snapped this picture because it reminded me of how he used to sleep when he was a baby, with his little arms over his head.)
