We were coming out of Hy vee this morning as they were unloading a van full of hay bales for their pumpkin display. I told Aidan and Toby to look at the men unloading the hay. Aidan asked, "where are the pigs for the hay?" LOL!!
My mom used to call us "Poor underpriviledged city kids" whenever we would say something like that. She grew up on a farm, so she felt our bringing up was sadly lacking!
My kids were riding in the backseat of the car one afternoon when I drove to my mom's and dad's, about 60 miles from here. One of them looked out the window and said, "Oh look! A donkey!" Another one replied, "Is it a sow or a bull?" (I'm not sure donkey is right, and I don't even remember what the animal was, but I'll never forget that question.)
I remember that, yes, it was a donkey. I was the one who spotted it. I believe that you then said it was a cow, and then Lydia asked if it was a sow or a bull. I needed glasses. Lydia needed some help with vocabulary (remember the blonde house?).
I am a Christian, wife and mother to four kids. I love fancy coffee, Pepsi and baked goods. I also love to do crafty things. My current project is quilting, but I'm also dabbling in making other baby items!
I'm married to Jim and we have four kidlets. Evan (11), Aidan (8), Toby (6) and the pink caboose is Avery who is four.
