this is from East TN. it's one of my new favorites.

Last night i finished Twilight (yeah, that one about vampires that everyone is so crazy over right now). Crystal is reading the last of the four books and I sat down with her to read some of the first one. She read Twilight in a weekend. I have been reading it since mid july. but last night the story got so intense that i ended up finishing the book. I read 150 pages in about three hours and i literally did not move from where i sat. and i didn't fall asleep either (which is saying a lot) the last book i read was No Country For Old Men. and i've been reading a couple other books since then. but nothing has gotten to me like this one. it is just really that good.

today Finley was playing in her toy room by herself. she pulled out a little "little people" umbrella and held it over her head. then she started dancing around and said "tut tut... raining... tut tut... raining...". for those of you who don't know, Christopher Robin says that to try to help Pooh Bear fool the bees in the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. so she just says this out of nowhere, and it floors us. she is SO observant and so smart. we asked her who got stuck in the tree...? "tigger" she said. and they say kids don't learn anything from tv. pretty cool... and pretty scary! love her!!

tomorrow is a big day. Crystal's first day of school with the kids. Finley's first day of school at the daycare... again (a new, better, and recommended one this time...) and I have to go get re-certified in CPR. fun fun fun!
