A NEW MAGAZINE FOR MAMIE......

After picking up children today Mamie, Nolan and I had to run some errands. I had to take some clothes and stuff to Bargain Bouquet, get something to eat and then pick up some can goods for VBS week. We went to Kroger Nolan got some Strawberry milk syrup, you know the kind of stuff you put in your milk and it turns it Chocolate, well Nolan loves the Strawberry kind and Mamie about had a fit because Nolan was getting something and she wasn't (I am sure you all go through this) so she said "remember that magazine I wanted last night" (which was Saturday morning) and I said "I don't remember which one it was, but if you show me I will get it for you since I didn't get it for you last Saturday". Now let me clear something up, this goes on all the time, he got something so I get something, but they don't always get it. O.K. back to the magazine story. So we go to where all the magazines are and Mamie starting yelling "THERE IT IS, THERE IT IS" Nolan starting yelling "Mamie you being loud, you hurt my head." I just laughed, people were just looking at me and I really felt like saying, "like you never have seen a child get so happy over something as small as a magazine". They had those looks on their faces like can't you do something with your children. I didn't care about those other people, I just enjoyed the moment of my two children laughing and having fun. O.K. I am sure everyone is waiting on the big ending hold on tight girls, I am sure this will bring back memories to many of you. Doesn't she look so happy? She has been looking at it since we got home and I am sure she will look at it more tomorrow. She doesn't know how to read yet, but she is having fun looking at all the pictures. It even has SIX posters in it. You ask if she will be hanging them in her room? The answer is "NO"........

I had a cedar chest full of these magazines! I can't believe a 6 year old wanted one though! I guess boys are really different than girls.
