Good kids

Resurrection Day with 3

A time for firsts

-Hannah’s losing her first tooth, then Mom accidently throwing it away. This was March 2008, and yes, she still got a visit from the tooth fairy!
-I really do believe I have spotted some of the first little faint grey hairs on me-head. March 2008
-Julia is absolutely beautiful. Our happiest baby yet, but not the best sleeper. She has six teeth right now, March 2008. 4 top and 2 bottom. I believe her first words were “Mama.”
-We joined Christ Church, Spokane on March 30, 2008.
-I killed our pesky and annoying little buger mouse last night, March 29, 2008 with a broom. Then I displayed the spoil of victory to my household!
-I believe it was Sunday March 9, 2008 that Julia Hope Alexander had her first communion.
Hannah Nicole can now ride a bike on her own with only a little bit of shadowing only one time. This happened around March 17, 2008. Also on St. Patrick’s Day, we brought home our first table, a real feasting table, that we believe will fit 12 easily! Jana found it at a Christian thriftstore for only $25.00 With some sanding and staining and such it will be quite nice.

A children's story

Okay, here is a children's story. After reading so many little kids books, you begin to think like them. Hannah actually helped me, coming up with some good stuff too!


A--In Hive “A” there once lived a Bee Named Cee, and an elephant slept nearby, named Dilly.
B--Cee was a Bee, and he was quite naughty.
C--Cee never obeyed his parents.
D--One early morning before the sun even came up, a Deer ran straight into Hive A.
E--The deer ran into the sleeping Elephant’s side, waking him up very rudely.
F--Our angry elephant, being so sleepy, Flopped onto his side.
G--Then he Groaned with pain and anger being highly annoyed.
H--The Hive circled around our elephant stinging him mercilessly because they thought he knocked down their hive.
I--Greatly Irritated, Dilly the elephant…
J--Jumped up straight from his side and…
K--Kicked relentlessly after the Hive, especially trying to kick the bee named Cee. Cee was an angry bee that kept trying to sting Dilly’s eye.
L--Dilly Loudly snorted while looking for the bee named Cee.
M--Cee, being very mad, Mashed his stinger straight into Dilly’s nose.
N--But Cee did not feel any better now that he released his stinger, and he Nastily kept going for poor Dilly’s eye.
O--Quite Overheated, Dilly suddenly felt the great desire for a swim.
P--Dilly Pounced after the pond.
Q--Quaking violently, the earth shook as Dilly bounded away from the hive and especially the bee named Cee.
R--Cee Raced after Dilly perplexed at his attempts to run away from such a fast hive of bees.
S--Swimming joyously, Dilly was able to relieve himself of stings for a few seconds.
T--Sticking his Trunk out, Dilly knew that Cee would take the bait, for he knew that Cee would sting any part of his body that came out of the water.
U--Under the surface of the water the long Nose of Dilly sucked up Cee straight down to his insides.
V--Immediately Vomiting Cee up, Dilly…
W--Washed off, and Whacked Cee to the ground under his great foot.
X--The Veterinarian doctor took an X-Ray of Dilly because he complained of Bee pains, and somehow thought that Cee was in him, even though he didn’t remember that he had smashed him you know.
Y--Yelping aloud, Dilly did not like the X-Ray, even though there is no pain in X-Rays you know.
Z--The next time Dilly dreamed many Z’zzzz’s, he dreamed that Cee turned into one big fat drop of honey straight into his snout, and he smiled.
