WHY TIDBITS?

I am constantly laughing at all the funny things my kids say.  Sometimes it's only a couple words, sometimes it's just how they sound when they are talking, but I ALWAYS think, "I need to remember this".   I've tried in the past to post them on my blog, but I haven't found a great way to do it.  So, the idea of Tidbits evolved.  A blog dedicated to the daily things my kids say.  
Some posts may not make sense, they may not even be post worthy, but for some reason or another, they seemed important to me at the time.  I hope by doing this it will preserve a part of this amazing time in their lives into my memory for years to come. 
If you want to join Tidbits... email me and I'll set you up so you can post as well.  I'm hoping this turns into a really fun blog we can all enjoy!!

Leprechaun Fun

Today is St. Patricks DAy. Lenny the Leprechaun came to visit us today and left magic sparkle dust that gives you good luck. The magic dust was even in the green pudding the kids had. After Kaden (age 8) tried the dust he told me he could feel himself getting stronger. He flexed his muscles and then did a handstand. He stood up and said, "Whoa! I've never stood that long before! I think it's working!"
Then he went over to a plastic toy bin and flicked it with his finger and watched it fall down. he was so shocked he could knock it down. He knows it's from the leprechaun dust.

Im So Smart

Avery age 5

Avery got her kindergarten shots the other day and she was super brave.

Today she was writing her name on a piece of paper (the best I've ever seen her do it)

Mom: Avery, you are getting so good at writing your name! I can tell you are almost ready for kindergarten.

Avery: I know. It's because the shots I got for "kindogoten" made me super smart.
