Yesterday at bowling .. Joel made two strikes in a row. He said can you believe I did that mom? I said, well yes I believe you could because you can do anything.. He kind of interrupts me in the middle of this to say.. Can you believe I did this, someone my age!'

After Bowling Joel had a ball in his arms.. I said oel why didn't you put that ball up? He said,, I thought you said we could take one home with us? I dn't know like a souvenir?

It's ok ma'am, I'm SEVEN

On a quick trip to pick up Barbara from her job at Huntington Bank, I sent Joel to tell Barbara that we were here. I watched him cross to the bank and he came out several minutes later. He stopped at van for a second and I could see he was talking to someone in the van. He came back to me immediately or I would have gone for him.

I asked him what he talked to the person in the van about and he told me this .' I could tell that lady was worried about me going to the bank by myself so I didn't want her to worry" I asked him what he told her .. "I said, it's okay, I'm SEVEN" I asked Joel what the woman said after that and he said , "she didn't say anything she was just laughing"

an actual dream of Joels told to me by his daddy.

Well, I don't think I should tell you what it was about.

Why?

Because it is about Uncle Donny

what happened with Uncle Donny?

IT begins with the 'v' word

What V word?

VO

VO what?

Violent daddy

Ohhh.. What happened?

Well, it also has the G word in it

what's the G word?

Guns.. Uncle Donny was giving us guns to kill the bad werewolfs. but first we practiced on guys that were wearing were wolf masks.

that sounds scary

it was a little bit

anything else?

Thats' the whole dream

my most awesomely wonderful young son has lost yet another tooth. Suprising mommy yet again; we were at Josh and Wendy's house for a barbecue when his little tooth was out and he was grining the grin of real superstars. I again broke out in tears (will this ever get easier?) My little boy has two teeth that are gone right there on his bottom jaw; smackdab in the middle! My beautiful son is growing up so quickly.

Joel has been having alot of issues lately; so the television is banned for awhile. I want to see an obedient, happy child and the tv is not conducive this child that i want. He is sitting on the green chair because of several disobedience infractions. Backtalking, running to daddy when he was in trouble for backtalking, throwing a cracker on the floor twice. He will be able to get up before the memorial tonight.just kidding!

Hes a good boy usually.. hes just not feeling his best today. Hopefully we will se a attitude improvement later today.

Big news! Joel lost his first tooth! It was so surreal. I was actually quite emotional which I didn't excpect to be. Joel and Luke ran down the stairs saying that the tooth was out and I was just hugging him and crying and he said"what's wrong mommy?'" and i said.. your just getting to be such a big boy. I can't believe that my little boy lost his firs tooth. It's kind of a big deal!

Last night Joel was under the weather. He kept moaning and finally I got him up and had him take some pepto.. Brian held him and rocked him for about a half hour and we finally got him back to sleep. I hope that hes' feeling better today. I hate for him to feel so sick and puny!

Two days ago he did read his first book.. He read about ten of a littel workbook which had thirty word stories . He did really great! I am so proud of him! I think it is time to teach him the Ps. verse and he can have his "learn to read " party!
