• Funny & Sweet

  First: The Funny

  Yesterday, Miss Abigail and I were watching Martha Speaks on PBS.

  It's a cute, entertaining, educational children's show.

  Its premise is to teach new words and their meanings.

  At the end of the show, they review the words that they've introduced throughout the episode.

  After the show was over, I asked Abby what 3 words we learned about.

  She replies, "Improbable, foreprobable, and I can't remember the other one."

  Of course, I chuckle and remind her that the second word was foreseeable, not foreprobable.

  I was still impressed, as she was close in meaning, she just wasn't quite sure what the word was.

  Second:  The Sweet

   

  Even though he teases them quite a bit,

  Aaron is a pretty great big brother to the girls.

  A bit of background:

  When she's in her room,

  Miss Rosie likes to plug her mp3 player into a dock,

   so she can listen to her music without ear buds.

  Well, the cord that connects her mp3 player to the dock quit working.

  She's been pretty  bummed about it, because she listens to alot of music.

  I had told her that I would pick one up for her the night we went to Walmart.

  Of course, I forgot.

  She told us how bummed she was again yesterday.

  Aaron asked to see the old cord, so he could see what she was talking about.

  Aaron does not listen to any music, so he would have no idea what cord she needed.

  Later, he had to walk Natalie up to work.

  And, yup, you guessed it :

  He came home w/ a brand-new cord for Miss Music herself.

  He had stopped at RadioShack and picked one up for her.

  A sweet gesture and all was right in Rosie's world again....

  for, at least another 15 minutes, lol.~
