How do people get up...?
Tonight, as we were finishing up reading the heart touching story of "The Littlest Angel", Zachary says, "mommy, I have a question." (Here we go- the realization that the littlest angel was a boy; and why was the little boy in heaven, and how do people get there... ooooh how to answer this?)
Zachary continues, "How do people get up into monster trucks?"

The morning of Cain-ita and Abel
One morning, as we were running late out of the door, a fire truck and ambulance siren could be heard in the distance. Mary Kate has encouraged Z to say a prayer for the people the rescue workers are going to help. So- Zachary stops in his tracks and says, "we've got to pray, daddy!" and proceeds to start a very sweet spontaneous prayer out loud. In the meantime, Rylee takes out at full speed for the alley. It's Monday- the trash truck is coming down the alley. So- I am chasing my demon daughter running into harms way 'round the car while NOT supporting my angel son making me proud of his spontaneous prayer. Lovely.

Adult stuff
While keeping both kids all weekend, I was explaining to Zachary why I was not going to Play Super Mario Bros (gen 1 recently rescued from SA) because of all the housework. Z replies, "Daddy, you've got to learn me all of this adult stuff because I'm just not going to know it." I'll try...

Par-tay
As we were shopping for invitations at Target, Z started inviting random people to his birthday party. Two accepted.
