I had a post to write but Corinne just walked in and started scratching my back. Oh my God, is there any blessing greater than a kid who loves you enough to scratch your back???

It's creepy and weird.

They are so cracked out on their precious! But at least they know what Lord of the Rings is!!! You've schooled them well, my friend.
That whole "precious" thing gave me the creeps for months after watching that movie. I didn't use that word for the longest time. hahaha :P
giggling all the way through :-D
