Wow. Over two months without a post. It's a daunting task to come back and I don't know where to begin. So I'll just start with something funny Luke told me just now. Derek's working tonight, everyone else is asleep, and I'm preparing for Primary for tomorrow. Luke got out of bed, pointing to his tummy and telling me it was empty, so I gave him our standby late-night snack: a banana. Since he's always pretending one thing or another, he said,"Let's pretend this is a monkey restaurant, okay?" (The banana.)
After he finished eating, in his last-ditch effort to not have to go back to bed, he said, to me, in his matter-of-fact three and a half year old voice, "Did you know in olden times kids slept in their parents bedrooms?" I laugh. "Where did you learn that?" "The Smurfs."
