A couple of weeks ago Ryan was watching Mary Poppins, and Hannah mentioned at dinnertime that she didn't understand one of the jokes on the movie. It goes something like this: A friend of mine ran over his neighbor's cat the other day. He knocked on her door and said, "I'm really sorry about your cat. I would like to replace it." "That's fine," she said, "but how are you at catching mice?"
As I was explaining it to Hannah, all of a sudden the lights came on in Nate's eyes. He had never gotten it before, either!
One night Nate and I got home to find a note on the counter from the girls with a lollipop wrapped in aluminum foil beside it. It read: For Mom or Dad, We thought since we didn't like this succor that you might. Caution: it has already been sucked on but only by us, don't worry. Love, Hannah and Nikki P.S. It's banana flavored. Rotten banana!

LOL! Are the kids calling you guys succors? That's funny! Glad Nate finally got to figure out the joke too :)
Oh my goodness! I actually laughed out loud about that note. :) Aren't kids awesome?
Also, your lesson yesterday was wonderful. It was just what I needed to get in a more grateful frame of mind. Thanks!
BWAH HA HA HA!
