Dad: Do you know what “Stealing” means? Anna: Yeah, it’s when I hold a ball and Daddy steals it from me…
We were going over the Advent calendar as a family. This particular day we talked about the 10 Commandments. We got to the part about not stealing because it breaks God’s command. So I asked, “Do you know what stealing means?” Anna replied, “Yeah, when I’m holding the ball, Daddy steals it from me.”
Okay, well I guess there are some instances of stealing that are okay, after all. 🙂
Friend: So did appendectomy surgery help? Me: Well, it prevented death…so, yeah, it helped.
Anna has always liked to “help” with the dishes. But this time was the first time that she actually helped. She’s growing up.
I love it when Anna helps me make coffee
On the weekends Anna and I have this routine of making coffee and “me-meal” (oatmeal). Anna does practically the whole thing, with me just opening packages and stabilizing pouring.
The worst thing about working out of the home is not being able to share these little “everyday-life” moments with my family as much as I’d like. I guess it makes me treasure the little things that we can do together.

Anna: Do I have school today? Dad: Yes. Anna: Did you ask Mommy?
Since I have had this week off from work, I’ve been getting Anna ready for school in the morning. Today as we were preparing breakfast, she said, “Do I have school today?” I replied, “Yes.” She then asked, “Did you ask Mommy?”
