Oh How I long to...




Tessa will sit at the edge of our driveway for hours just longing to go out into the road. She rides herself to the very edge and teeters with crossing that line. You can just see the wheels turning in her head. "Should I do it or not?" She'll look back at me, then to the road, then to me... Her big toe will move out over the line, and she'll, ever so sneaky, move closer and closer until her dreaded mother calls out "TESSA JAYNE..NO, NO".

I'm SO VERY HAPPY to hear how others have little ones who test their mothers! It makes me not feel so alone :)

Where'd you get her shoes...can't find small "crocs" anywhere!

The Dollar Store in Dorr--yes, only $1.00. We loaded up and bought about 5 pairs for each kid. And, they are the cute maryJane style. Us Dorr people love to boast about our Dollar Store--best in the state-!!!

Oh! I need to get out there and get some for the girls. They don't sell them at Payless right now. I guess they got recalled for bad straps in the back. Whatever! How about for how much they make my kids trip and break open the already scabbed knees. I love them though!

That dollar store just might be worth the trip out to 'ol Dorr.

Tessa is so Big! your Baby!

So, I busted on down to the Dorr Family Dollar...they were plum-out (except for 3 random pairs) of "crocs" but said they'd get more on Friday. YIPEE!

I'm predicting the Dorr Dollar Store has a record sales day tomorrow.
