Yay for me. :)
So - I gave MC the BOM this morning. . .it didn't go quite how I planned, but that's ok. I had wrapped it up - - so that I could give it to her as a "gift" and have her open it "later" - but when she saw that it was a book, she was like, "Is it a journal." "no." "can I open it now?" "no." . . . "is this a Mormon book?" "(smiling/like a kid being shy)yes." She said something similar to, "I can't wait to take this with me to my church on Sunday!" I said, "Don't be making fun of me and my church to your church." She assured me that they "don't do that. ever."
BUT - I am super proud of myself. I don't know that I have ever done that before. (SAD, huh?) So - I'm excited to go to PMG class in the morning and report of my following through-ness. Also - I am supposed to be feeding the missionaries, my parents and an investigating family tomorrow evening. . .which means= I MUST CLEAN MY HOUSE!!!!
Tonight, Tracy and I went to Hinesville to eat, then rented "Baby Mama," and watched most of it with Sam. I didn't see the end, because I felt I needed to get my child and go on home. So. I did. I will finish the movie later. (Hopefully tomorrow!)
Good Night!

Jacob Reading
So - I really hadn't heard Jacob read in awhile. Therefore, tonight I asked him to read me a book at bedtime. He picked "Vote For Spongebob" (very fitting, I might add with the current Presidential campaign right now. . .lol) So - he was doing such a good job, that I decided to video some of it:
Check out this video: Jacob Reading "Vote For Spongebob"
He's so smart! He just was just tested and qualified for the gifted program since school has started back. I'm so proud of him. Tonight before going to sleep, I was in my bed and he was in his, and we played by giving each other math problems - he did an awesome job! and we played 20 questions. He is amazing.
