The Bananas Are Ripening

No, not those bananas. Well yes, those are looking pretty ripe too, but the bananas I'm talking about are Adriana Banana and Christiana Banana - MY bananas - they are growing up so fast! Look here, and see what I mean...

Adriana turned eight on February 1st. She is so much fun, and such the little karaoke diva. Socialite and pure delight both.

Oh, she can't keep a secret to save her life (We remind her to keep a zipped lip about people's birthday presents only to have her shout it out as soon as they open the door, then coyishly cover her mouth and say "Oops!")
But she gives her life to us all with her selflessness, kindness, cuddliness, and all things good that are the essence of her being.


And...

She was mature enough to decide she would like to pattern her life after Jesus Christ, as an official member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and was recently baptized by her daddy!

Oh, big time!



And that is not all. No, that is not all.

What of the other banana, you say? Well... you just look for yourself at her 6 year old birthday party, and you tell me...

A true princess, Christiana Banana resides in her own fairy world, and invites the rest of us in for a little magic now and then... If you want to know what love is, ask someone to tell you. If you want to feel love, spend a day with Christiana and let her show you.

















I know. This is what I'm saying.

Sneakers & Blogger Account Ability

Why, yes, those are my sneakers. And just as it appears in the photo, they are already on my feet. The problem I am having is that they are also already on the ottoman, and they are comfortable. The kids are at school. Paul is at work. It is about 9:25, and seeing as the gym is just outside of the neighborhood there is really no reason why I shouldn't have the feet in these gym shoes walking out the door and into the car and driving me to catch the 9:45 class. I am tired, and therefore I am stalling. So here on my very first post is not only Blogger Account Ability - but Blogger Accountability. Gotta run!
