The boys got many toys and games for Christmas but the biggest hit of all was the game, Hungry Hungry Hippos. They loved it! The only problem is keeping up with the marbles that comes with the game. They should give you extras but they don't. Fun, fun, fun!
"If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give up your life for me, you will find it." Matthew 10:39

Another one for you
If you've followed this blog at all, you've learned that I love music that it often speaks volumes to me. Well, I have another one for you. And, of course, it has everything to do with how you feel about your kids. Its worth the download on Itunes. You may remember Darius Rucker. He used to be the lead singer of Hootie & the Blowfish but had just recently released a country album. In the meantime, here's the lyrics.
It Won't Be Like This For Long, by Darius Rucker
Songwriters: Dubois, Charles; Gorley, Ashley; Rucker, Darius;
He didn't have to wake up
He'd been up all nite
Lay'n there in bed listen'n
To his new born baby cry
He makes a pot of coffee
He splashes water on his face
His wife gives him a kiss and says
It gonna be OK
It won't be like this for long
One day soon we'll look back laugh'n
At the week we brought her home
This phase is gonna fly by
So baby just hold on
It wont be like this for long
Four years later bout four thirty
She's crawling in their bed
And when he drops her off at preschool
She's clinging to his leg
The teacher peels her off of him
He says what can I do
She says now don't you worry
This will only last a week or two
It wont be like this for long
One day soon we'll drop her off
And she won't even know your gone
This phase is gonna fly by
If you can just hold on
It wont be like this for long
One day soon she'll be a teenager
And at times you'll think she hates him
Then he'll walk her down the aisle
And he'll raise her veil
But right now she up and cry'n
And the truth is that he don't mind
As he kisses her good night and she says her prayers
He lays down there beside her
Till her eyes are finally closed
And just watch'n her it breaks his heart
'Cause he already knows it wont be like this for long
One day soon that little girl is gonna be all grown up and gone
Yeah this phase is gonna fly by
He's try'n to hold on
It wont be like this for long
It wont be like this for long
