swearing problems

One day Calvin was swearing at Jo and she was swearing back. Obviously my angelic three year old learned all of her bad words from him, so I told him that if I hear Jo swearing, he is the one who is going to get in trouble.

A few days later Jo came to me and said a bad word. Then she asked if Calvin was going to get in trouble, reminding me that Calvin will get in trouble whenever she says a bad word.  Goodness! How do these kids develop sass at such a young age. I think if she's old enough to figure out how to frame her brother, she's old enough to have her own consequences.

If you're wondering what swear words they say to each other, they like to call each other the b word and they say f you to each other, although when Jo says it is is "puck you Talvin" and "bish"

change of clothes

A few days ago Calvin came home from the park a little while before us. When I got home I noticed he had changed his clothes. It is very unusual for Calvin to care at all about his hygiene so I was surprised to see him changed.  I asked him why he was in new clothes and he said, "oh, just because." And I asked, "Did you have some kind of accident?"  Calvin replied super matter of factly as he continued with what he was doing "yes, wet fart."

hump day

We have reached our 1/2 way mark in Houston. Looking back over old blog posts I was worried sick about planning for this move. We have been so blessed to be here.  We live in just the right place for our family. We are so happy to have this special time as a family to make new friends, memories and experience the gift of feeling God watching out for us a little more than we would have if we had stayed in SD this year.
