Family of Six: In Sticking with the Star Wars Theme
http://familyofsixgoingtoethiopia.blogspot.com/2010/03/in-sticking-with-star-wars-theme.html
Monday, March 8, 2010. In Sticking with the Star Wars Theme. We have a new student who is reserved and fairly introverted. On approximately her fifth day of school, her mom has braided her hair in tiny little plaits and pulled them up into two sloppy buns. Her hair was soooo. What does the School Counselor say to the new, shy student? She says, " Student, I really like your cute buns. Yep, that is what I said. Sinking to a new low in putting my foot in my mouth. Overdue for Spring Break. The Lamb-A-Roo" ...

Sunday, June 13, 2010. Can someone pleeeeassse tell me what a "turtle ferter" is? Sylvie-Aganoti frequently asks, "Remember turtle ferters mama? I have NO IDEA what she is saying. Clark has NO IDEA what a turtle ferter is. Of course we have questioned her. The following are facts about turtle ferters. 1 They are generally yellow- mostly on their backside. 2 Though, if I had one it would be blue. 3 Mine would be bigger than Sylvie's. 5 To eat one would be inappropriate, funny and even yucky!

Monday, February 8, 2010. We spent some time at the mall this weekend. I needed some new undergarments. The boys waited (they'd rather not go in! And Sylvie-Aganoti made her first trip to Victoria's Secret. Not five minutes in the so, so busy store when Sylvie loudly declares, "Momma, Momma! These breast-es are HUGE! I don't know if she was talking about our fellow shoppers. I don't know if she was referring to the displays. In either case. .she's rather accurate. Out of the mouths of babes:). Ethiopia" ...

Family of Six: Have you ever...
http://familyofsixgoingtoethiopia.blogspot.com/2010/05/have-you-ever.html
Thursday, May 27, 2010. Run a mile-long track event in the sleet with your shorts falling off? The harder it sleeted, the wetter his shorts became. The wetter his shorts became, the heavier they got. The heavier they got, the harder they were to keep up. Our guy ran across the finish line holding on to his waistline. But he finished. And we are proud of him! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Family of Six: Confession
http://familyofsixgoingtoethiopia.blogspot.com/2010/03/confession.html
Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Months ago I proudly blogged about our status as a TV-free family. We spent our evenings playing Yahtzee. And Chess, reading books, eating family-dinner, conversing. Life was perfect, ideal. Ok. Life wasn't exactly rainbows, puppies, and walks on the beach. But pretty darn close. Then came the Olympics. And the justifications. Just these two weeks. What kind of Americans are we if we do not watch our best and brightest perform? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Journey to Ava R...
