Moments you love...

Sorry, last night was another spreadsheet night, figuring out our health insurance for next year. Wonderfully, the hubs received his contract today (although it's not finalized) which means the job is his once he signs the dotted line. And once they get his salary right, the line will be signed! But, back to my kiddos.

Yesterday, I had an awesome moment with Moose in the car yesterday. We were on our way to a playgroup and he likes to tell stories in the car. Most of the time it sounds something like this:

You take a seed, and you add water. Water, seed, water, seed, water, seed, and then it grows into a big skyscraper. There are lots of people in the skyscraper and it gets really heavy and falls over. Then they pick it up and it falls over. Pick it up, falls over, pick it up, falls over. And then it stayed up. The end.

Today, however, he started to tell me Goldilocks and the Three Bears. (Which he hears on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood Website.) He started telling the story and I didn't think anything of it. Then he got to the part that says, "Then Mama Bear said, 'Someone's been eating my lunch.'" As he started to quote Mama Bear, he stopped, then started over again with the best falsetto he could muster and repeated it over again. Then for the rest of the story, I heard a very distinct and gruff Papa Bear voice, a nice falsetto Mama Bear, and his regular voice for the Baby Bear. It was just too adorable. I absolutely loved it!
