Stories I may not want to forget

1. The other day when Christian woke up and kept saying "ball, ball" as he was crying and pulling on his pajama feet. I couldn't figure out what he was trying to say and then I got it. He was frustrated because he didn't have his football pajamas on. I asked him, "Do you want your football pajamas?" and he nodded yes and pointed to his pajama drawer.

2. Last Saturday at the Ruwe Christmas, Courtney had gotten a gift that had a large plastic candy cane filled with M & M's. She had decided that she was going to sell them to people there. Her deal was that you got one for free, but you had to buy the rest. She made almost $2 by selling her candy! She thought it was all fun (it was great because we had only paid $1 for the candy!).

It was not so funny when we got home. She was in tears because she wanted her candy back! I mean, she was really upset (it was also 10 pm and this was our second late night!). Matt tried to tell her that she still had half her money PLUS the $2 she made from selling it, she could go buy two more candy canes full of candy!

Matt promised to take her to the store, so Sunday after we all got home, Matt decided that he needed to go back to the mall to get some pillows, so he decided to take her along to get her some candy. I thought they were going to stop and some store and buy some more, but Matt thought otherwise. He just had her stop at the candy machines in the mall and buy some! She came home with a handful of assorted candy! She also had some money left, I think this made her happy! I just want to say, "Don't sell your candy then!"
