A clean sweep

One of the upsides to having someone over to your house (besides having great company) is having an excuse to clean your house. My house is CLEAN today (once I vacuum the stairs and upstairs that is - didn't quite get to that) after a stressful day of making it that way yesterday. Now the trick is to keeping it that way!

Another great quote from Blaise

Blaise: "If I lived in a family where no one loves Jesus, I think I'd have to leave."
Me (laughing): "Well, I'm glad we all love Jesus then, because I don't want you to leave us."

Overheard in the Car

Overheard in the car on the way to CCD last night:

Isaac: Blaise, it's a good thing we're both boys.

Blaise: Why?

Isaac: Because we're going to like each other for a long, long time.

Blaise: Even if you were a girl, and I was a boy, we'd still like each other for a long, long time.

That definitely put a smile on Andy's and my faces. These are the moments that make me especially grateful I am a mom to these two beautiful boys.
