My Eco Friendly Kids

The key to saving our Planet Earth. It's a 4 year old future Fish and Wildlife advocate . The key to saving our clean water supply is Reagan Clifton. A future Green Peace advocate.

In the core of me I truly hate balloons. Why is this you ask. I think it is a waste of rubber latex. Rubber Latex pollutes our Earth and fills the landfills faster than you can say "neeeecomepoop". I put that part in for the kids.

Now, to the funny part. Bodhi ended up bring home a balloon that Papa gave him. He walked outside with it and it flew away. Next came the tears. It was flying away and all he could say to his mother was " oh man...... I want my balloon back"! "It might kill a dolphin". I want to console him but I can't I'm laughing to hard. Oh and I'm pissed now that there might be a small chance this balloon will make it to the ocean and kill a dolphin.

Now, I have some how instilled in my kids not to let the water run when you brush your teeth. In all if you collected all that water you could provide fresh water to any third world country where people die from tainted water. I'm not perfect but I never leave the water running.

Well, last night I was pulling my hair back and brushing my teeth at the same time. I had no free hand to turn the water off. It was killing me inside but I continued brushing. Reagan tells me " Mama your wasting clean water". Again, I'm laughing so hard I almost wet myself.

What will it be next?

8 Seconds

You know how when you ride a bull you have 8 seconds. That's what William has in him if you put him in our bed. If he even gives you 7.2 seconds he's showing you he loves you. On a good day he's like a cat in water. You drop him in and he jumps right out. Now William just wants his own space, I think. I gave it one more try tonight. I picked him up and put him in the bed. I was waiting for that 8 seconds buzzer. I timed it Daddy. He stayed in the bed next to me for 20 minutes. He even put his head on my leg. (William, my little Benji )

God Speed

Homeschool Exclaimer

I need pictures like I NEED a hole in the head. So when it's time for school picture's brake out the big buck's. I NEED those pictures. Call me crazy but how in the hell do you get school picture's when you homeschool. OK so think...... think....... think......think some more. Oh take them yourself, if you dare.

It was so painful for Bodhi to do this. I did resort to talking about alligators in a baby voice. I managed to make him cry and turn red. Perfect for pictures.

Reagan is........................perfect. She wouldn't stop. Hints the class picture of Kit the amazing American Girl.

HEAD LINES FROM HOUSTON

Chad has not made the nightly news. Although he has made a friend. ;)

Both funny and sad.

Well, what's sad is your not sleeping next to me at night. What's funny is I now get to hear Reagan farting in the morning.

What's sad is you had to get on that plain. What's funny is you could make your Dad poop his pants at the airport.

What's sad is I miss you coming home at night. What's funny is when Carlos comes home. I can jump out of the closet and scare the crap out of him. He never saw it coming. heeheehee

What's sad is how much the kids and I miss you. What's funny (we actually miss you).

What's sad is I think I like driving your old truck. What's funny about that?

What's sad is your missing all my home cooked meals. What funny is watching Carlos eat my organic content in his dinner.

One day closer to Daddy coming home.

I bet that's my Daddy

Bodhi is an amazing kid. He has kept a smile on my face all day. Bodhi spotted a plane from the car. He pointed and said " I bet that's my Daddy".

Bodhi still thinks your coming home. He asked me last night, "When is Daddy coming home"?

" It's getting dark".

The kids have played outside today. All Bodhi wants to do is go in Carlos' room. He wants more toys.

Reagan is counting down the days until her birthday. All she wants is an American Girl book.

OH and to keep her nite nite forever.

Carlos had some very nice guys over here today. They where here to wire up the bathroom. And after that old man was so rude to me today, it made my day.

One more day closer to Daddy coming home.

It's dark is Daddy home, yet?

We get to talk one last time before his plane leaves. He's tring to cover the same tears we cry. Reagan understands what has happened to us. She has no control over her tears. She saw a single plane take off and began clawing at the sky. My heart is breaking for her and I can't do anything to fix it.

Then, there was a cute race to the truck. Bodhi beats Carlos by a long shot. GO BODHI! We load up in the truck and Bodhi then realises Dad is gone. He turns to the window sucking his thumb. I asked him if he was ok. All he mumbled was "this is stupid". We took the kids to Barbie and she knew exactly what to do.

1. Give them baby talk

2. Lots of hugs

3. She says the word LOVE after everything

4. Ask them "what can I do my love" a million times

5. Gives Reagan her spear nite nite

6. Candy before their meal.

7. Cartoons

8. Ask them what they want for x-mas next year

9. Chicken nuggets meals

10. Candy after the meal.

Barbie saved the day, Daddy.
