Suzyisms

Today, Suzy got a Jelly Bean before she ate her breakfast. Why? Because I traded her for a booger. From now on, if a booger gets in the tissue and not her mouth, I will replace it with a Jelly Bean. Why do we need this new incentive? Because according to Suzy, "Boogers taste good." I'm just hoping Jelly Beans taste better. ;) "G" - wanna give it a try with me? I may be on to something!

Yesterday, Suzy wanted eye makeup before we went to the store. I told her she didn't need makeup because her eyes were so "young and beautiful". She then asks me if my eyes were "old and tired." I guess they really are. When we got to the store (without makeup on either of us), I did not get carded when I bought Rob some bear. It was the first time in my life I wasn't at least asked for id. I hate 35..... I guess I need to start wearing makeup.

Suzy was so sweet yesterday. We made a care package for her friend, Katie, as they prepare to fly to New York tomorrow. Most of the morning was spent gathering items for the gift bag. Suzy wanted to also send her some "cards". She then started to make cards for some of her other little friends. I just love her caring and generous little spirit. At one point, she announced, "Lane will have to share with Brynna (his sister) because I don't want to run out of my supplies (post it notes and tape)." So sweet. So funny. Such a hoarder - like her momma.

I love three and a half. It was a tough journey for Suzy to get here. But, man, I could stay at this little "vacation spot" for a while. I hope you don't get tired of the stories. But I'm told this time goes by so very fast and I want to remember all these precious moments before we get to the teenage years.....
