One of Those Firsts

Today we had a first.  It wasn't one of the fun ones.  I got my first "I don't love you" from the Boy. Ouch.

Sour Face

The Man and I saw this picture on TV last night and he commented on the similarity between it and the Girl.

 

I had to agree.  She has recently taken to scowling a lot.

Bumper Sticker

I want this bumper sticker.

I Want to Be a....

Yesterday at church, the Boy and the Girl started fighting before services even began.  So I pulled the Girl onto my lap and placed the Boy in front of me for a serious talk.  We had this conversation:

Me: Boy, what kind of a boy do you want to be today?

Boy: I want to be a gentleman.

Girl: (very earnestly) And I want to be a butterfly.

Couldn't be mad at all after that.

Christmas Present

The big thing I bought for The Man at Christmas was a grill.  It was both gas and charcoal and it had a smoker box.  It was a lot of grill.  I wasn't sure The Man would want/like it.  As it turns out, he felt it was a little more grill than he needed.  So he took it back and got this instead.

It HAS a grill, so I guess it's pretty much the same thing.
