Sorry, I'm a little behind:(

Sorry to my faithful two or three readers!  I have fallen behind in my blog world.  I will catch up soon, I think.  Until then, here is what I learned from Emilee this week.  

We were in the car talking about various exciting things from their day at school.  Out of nowhere Carter asked me if we were allowed to marry our cousins.  I told him no that you shouldn't do that, brothers and sisters can't marry each other and that boys should marry girls and girls should marry boys.   Emilee very quickly chimed in with one marriage rule that I had clearly forgotten.  In her best serious voice she said that no one should marry Satan! How did that one slip my mind?  I asked her why and she said because you would go to Hell!  Good enough reason for me.

HA! This might be the right time to let Emilee know that Hell is a mythical place like Disney World. Wait, didn't you guys go there this year? I must be wrong.

By the way, I blogrolled you. Hope you don't mind. Also, if you are looking for a reason to update your blog, I know of some great pictures you could post that were taken of you recently. :)

Hey, I totally agree. Marrying Satan sounds like a terrible idea. Emilee is so wise. And ... marrying in the family didn't do MY family any good, so that's a good no-no to stick by. :)
