Subject: Hello from Austin and Samantha update/brag time!
Hello! I just had to brag on Samantha for being such a big girl.
Yesterday (Monday) morning we got up and ate breakfast and watched
Sesame Street together. Then, I turned off the TV and told her that
I was going to take my shower and she could play in her room ... and
then we were going to go and pick up the VCR from the repair shop.
(Our JVC VCR recently started eating tapes, the repair man said that
it was a common and easy to fix problem with JVC VCRs). Well, Samantha
must have been highly motivated to go pick up that VCR because while
I was in the shower ... she went and picked out her clothes, got them
out of the closet ... came in the bathroom and went potty (WITHOUT
BEING PROMPTED!!!!!) all by herself ... got her clothes off of the
hangers and got herself completely dressed ... including shoes and
socks ... ALL BY HERSELF!!!!!! All I had to do was turn on the
water so that she could wash her hands and then tie her shoes! She
was VERY PLEASED with herself and told everybody that we saw that
she got dressed before Mommy!
I thought we had finally passed the facination with death and
dying .. but I got more questions today. Today, she asked "Are you
still real after you die and go to heaven?" and "Why can't you
come back after you go to heaven?" ... and then the easy one
"Do you miss YOUR Grandma and Pa-Pa since they are in heaven?"
She is still in the kick of having different parts of her body
wanting to do different things. The other night at supper, Murphy
was under the table and Stephen and I kept shooing her out.
Samantha piped in with "Mommy, this foot wants to kick Murphy,
and this foot wants to be nice!" (To which I replied, "If your
one foot kicks Murphy, then your whole body is going to go into
time out.") Then, she put both hands over the spout of her sippy
cup and put it up to her mouth and said "Mommy, my mouth is thirsty
and wants to drink, but my hands won't let it." (To which I
replied, "Your ONE brain controls both your hands and your mouth,
so you will have to decide who is going to win!" ... aaarrggghh!)
This one really bugs me ... I keep having visions of Jack Nickleson
talking to his finger (was that the actor??? - I never did see
that movie, just the previews)
Today I finally bought a sewing machine cabinet!!!! I have been
saving up for one for a while now. I had one all picked out and
knew exactly how much it was going to cost ... and when I finally
had the money saved up ... it had been discontinued and was no
longer available ... aarrgghh! Well, since I had all the money
saved up and both of my favorite sewing machine stores were having
sales on their sewing machine cabinets ... I picked out a different
one. It is a Koala cabinet - made in Australia. The store just
started carrying them about a year ago. Anyway, I picked out a
really nice cabinet ... and it was significantly cheaper than the
one I had originally picked out (because it has a pneumatic lift
instead of an electric lift). It should be delivered sometime
next week. You know what I will be doing this weekend - cleaning
out my sewing room to take down the door sitting on top of two
bookshelves that my sewing machine and serger currently sit on
and making a nice path so that the delivery men can bring the
cabinet in without risk of bodily injury. (If you have ever seen
my sewing room, you understand!)
Stephen and I are still struggling with how we are going to tell
Samantha about Mark and Lana's divorce. (Mark and Lana are our
next door neighbors and their little boy, Adam is 8 weeks younger
than Samantha and they have been playmates practically since birth.)
I was talking to one of the women in my playgroup and she seemed
to think that we might be able to get by without mentioning it at
all. Especially since Adam moved out once before and Samantha
hardly ever saw Mark before because we usually played with Adam
during the day when the daddies are at work. Right now,
Samantha is still struggling with the concept that Adam is in
daycare all day and we can't invite him over to play whenever
we want (like we used to). Lana is still looking for a job
and has had one interview.
