Rob's mind

Rob makes me laugh. Here is his latest post for sixldswriters.

Spiders

My darling daughter has been obsessed with spiders lately. I thought she had a spider bite and as the sore got really gross and I caught what looked like a Hobo spider in my bathtub she began to talk about spiders all the time. She is ok. What looked like a Hobo spider was a close relative and her bite was actually a staff infection. But her obsession continues. A couple of days ago I found a note on my pillow. It said the names of a whole bunch of spiders and then said that the black widow spider bite is dangerous to humans and that a red kneed tarantula has a powerful bite but is not harmful to humans. I showed it to Rob. While I was running in the morning he asked Holly about it and she said she put it on my pillow to freak me out. Only 6 and the pranks are already starting.

Helpers

Sam came out with his book "The Little Red Hen" and announced that he was going to read it to Max. He pulled a chair up to the crib and said "Not I said the Duck, Not I said the Cat".



I have great helpers

Merry Christmas!

We went to see the Christmas lights on Temple Square this year just in case we move out of state when school is over. It was great! The last time we went to the lights was when Holly was 3 and Sam was just a few months old too young to remember.

So funny

I know I just posted but I had to write this down. In church today Sammy and the other nursery kids that will be coming into primary this January joined us in Sharing Time. The Relief Society invited the primary to come and sing the Wise Man and the Foolish Man (their lesson was on Christ being a sure foundation). This was Sam's first primary experience and he was very enthusiastic. He sang as loud as he could and did all of the actions. On the very last verse they sang "The foolish man built his house upon the sand, the rains came down and the floods came up. The house on the sand washed away" As soon as Sam finished singing "the house on the sand washed away" he shot his hand into the air and made a loud explosion sound. It was the most fitting ending to that song.
