This has been a common phrase in my house lately. 'Why?' you may ask? This morning he came up to me and asked "more beer?" I looked at him, thought for a moment, and said "what?"... he then said with a more demanding inflection "MORE BEER?" while pointing to the TV. At that moment i knew what he wanted. We recently bought "The Jungle Book" for Curtis to enjoy. We thought he would like the monkeys and the panthers, but surprisingly he likes the "beer".
For his birthday, we got a DVD about Tractors and Horses. And just now (i kid you not) curtis asked me if he could watch the "hore". LOL. this kid makes me laugh!

thankful thursday...number 2
well, not much has changed in a week. but i do have one little thing to be thankful for.
Curtis has been so much fun lately. he has been talking so much these days. he's even saying complete phrases. my two favorites are "hey, don't do that!" and "get back here". today he kept lifting up his shirt and saying "my belly" and then kept putting his belly in my face so i would blow rasberries on it. he begs his daddy to take him out on bicycle rides. he tells us when he wants to leave the house by saying "car mommy...go to house" (house is grandma's house). he is obsessed with tractors. anything john deere, or if it has an appearance of a tractor...expect one happy boy. he makes my life happy.

Thankful Thursday...
I saw this on a friends blog and thought it was a fantastic idea. I hope that i will be able to keep it up every week. Things have been busy here at home, it will be nice for me to reflect and be thankful.
1. I'm so thankful for my job. When we moved back to the gila valley, we decided that clifton would focus on school and i would get a job and support our family. This volleyball coaching gig fell into my lap, and i cannot express how much i love it. Working with these girls gives me such pleasure (especially when we win), that i pretty sure its what i want to do for my career. Now, i don't know at what level or gender (i hear boys are easier to coach than girls...hmm), but i love teaching the game. And watching these girls fall in love with the game is amazing.
2. Im thankful for my OTHER job. Last season when we would travel on our road trips, i thought to myself, "i'm going, I might as well drive!" So I got my CDL, and now drive at least once a week...sometimes twice or as in this week, three. I find it relaxing to just be gone for an evening, and call it a job. It does get hard at times when we have the long trips (the games start at 7, and dont get over until 9 sometimes 9:30), but i find ways around the sleepiness. I enjoy relaxing and having time to think on the open road.
Oh yeah, i'm thankful for my OTHER, OTHER job. i teach a volleyball class one night a week at the college. An average of 40-50 students attend, and just play. So much fun.
3. I'm thankful for Bishop's who care.
4. I'm thankful for friends who listen with love. You know who you are... I love you squezzie-q.
5. I'm thankful for my health and the desire to get and stay healthy. Not just physicaly, but mentaly. Ah to be sain...someday.
