7 brides for 7 brothers
Tonight is the opening night of the play 7 brides for 7 brothers at TVCC. My daughter is the "set maker"- I know she has a "title" but i don't know right now what it is. I am here baby-sitting Bi, he is very sleepy, but it is only 6:30, so I will let him stay up longer. so as he is staying up, I help clean up the babies room pick up toys, help put away some clean clothes, run the dishwasher, run another load of laundry, boy time goes by fast, it now 5 to 8p. good, time to put Bi down, now he is sleepy and he wants to go to sleep, but he doesn't want to go to bed, but down he goes with crying for a few minutes and then, sleep comes.
oh yes back to the opening night... Chrisy took the Ai & Ei. Ei told me that she "had" to go with mom to the college and they would go in the red car. Ei is happy to be "going" I hope she can set still for the play, can't wait to hear how it went. Oh, Big papa,oma, Lisa and her boyfriend will meet them there.
I have seen this play at TVCC once before, long ago... anyway.
This story is very dear to Chrisy and I. when Chrisy was around 7 years old, I rented this move, took it back rented something different, the next weekend we had to rent 7 brides for 7 brothers again. Now this went on for quite a few weeks, got me to thinking, I could have bought this move by now! So to the store we go and buy the move, we watch it to this day. Lisa when she was younger, around seven too, she always wanted to watch the "dancing move" all the time. We have gotten our moneys worth I should say!
One year after being at a family reunion in Laural MT. oma, Chrisy, around 12yrs old, and I coming home, oma could not stay awake driving, but we did not want to stay at a motel, so we started reciting lines from the move, we started at the beginning and went all the way to the end singing and all, that was some fun times! oh ya we made it home safe and sound too.
Now 20+ years later Chrisy is putting this play set together. who would have thought?

tell us a story
young boys "Tell us a story"they begged, myself "No not today". young boys "Tell us a story", myself "today is not a story kind of day". young boys "tell us a story". myself- I look at all the boys wanting a story, there must have been 6 or 8 of them. age 8 to 10 years old 3rd and 4th graders. As I looked at them I say "OK, today I will tell you a story". I step closer to the table, as did all the boys. I lower my head, and my voice. I start:
Once apon a time in a land...I lower my voice even more, far far away, I look at each boy standing - leaning into the table. I continue "there was a boy,again I look each boy in the eye, "who lived in a town much like the one we live in. He would not eat his fruit, as I look at the container of peaches on the table, and back at the boys, who themselves look at the peaches, You know what happened to this boy? I asked, they all said no, now waiting for the the word.. I said it, yes I said the word. You know what happened to this boy? he could not go poop. The boys all look at each other, and back at me, that's right I said he could not poop, so if you don't want to be like that boy, eat your fruit. The one way to remember is story I told them was that fruit and poop rhyme so eat your fruit and you can poop. Now take some fruit and get to your tables. They all get some peaches on their plates and head off to their tables, each whispering to each other, "she said poop" hehehe

Baptism
Is it the water? or the place? or is it what happens to you? I know that God wants us to be like him, and when we love God, we want to tell the world about it. The way we do this is to be baptised. AI is going to be baptised this Easter. Now my daughter and her family go to 2 different churches. One is on Saturday and one on Sunday. Easter is on Sunday, April 4th, 2010.
When I ask Ai if she she was ready, she said "oh yes and some day I am going to be baptised in "our" church.

Some people die
people die, some people never live. Today I heard that someone that I went to school with passed away in her sleep. When this happened people seem to want to get together, why don't we get together when we are all living?school reunion is in April. I plan to go, why, the same as others, because I have not taken the time to get together when they were all living. So busy living we don't keep in touch.

going potty
one day when I was at my daughter's house watching my grandkids; Ei told me she had to go potty. Ei is 2 and in the midst of toilet training, so i was excited to help her learn and get to be the praiser. Ei tried to get her little brother, Bi, to go potty also, but he just walked off. she keep trying to convince him to come with her to the bathroom and sit on the little potty. i told Ei that Bi did not have to go potty and to let him just play. she wanted to know why he did not need to go, and I said "because he is a boy!" Ei turned and looked at him and said "a boooooooy?!" in a long drawn out voice, I then told her that Bi will not be ready to go potty for a long time. Later as I told Ci(my daughter)about the day, and the potty story, she said "Mom! the right answer is because he is still a baby" oh right, and that too.
