An abduction

Ok I was abducted by aliens and and haven't blogged in.....oh about a month......ok maybe not =) Life has just been one crazy roller coaster! Lives have been busy and crazy things have happened but everyone is OK and doing as well as can be at this point. I won't get into details for fear of boring you with all the cute things the kids have done HEHE but I'm going to share a hilarious event that happened on Sunday.....

Derrick has had some itchy skin lately due to the crazy weather we've been having down here in SoCal lately. He was itching so bad I said "dude take off your shirt and just run around shirtless". Little did I know my son would take me so literal! I was laying on the couch and I hear footsteps running behind me. I turn around and Derrick is running around in circles behind me. I asked what he was doing and he said "Mom you told me to take off my shirt and run around". Oh my goodness! I couldn't stop laughing, it was so hilarious. I explained I didn't mean to literally "run around" that he could just hang out without a shirt on. He was cool with the idea of going shirtless but I don't think I'll ever forget that it was just too priceless!

Oooh ooh Derrick also turned 6 on the 1st.....he got an awesome surprise call from Leeanne! I don't know who was more excited, him or me =) The kids talk about her nearly everyday. Danae is always pretend talking to her on her play phone. I love when she calls 'cause it gives me someone to "card talk" to! Ok enough typing for one day, I'm off to bed. Work comes too early in my world here =)
