Carter and Kindra were watching cartoon's this morning on my bed when Carter started to bother Kindra. She said the funniest thing to him that I thought was also very clever and witty......
Kindra "Carter, are you a stranger?"
Carter "No?"
Kindra "Well, be one and leave me alone!!!"
It was what I needed to start the day off with a laugh! :)

Happy Birthday Michael!
My youngest sibling, Michael, turned 17 today. He was born in Toronto so he is one of my true fellow Canadian's even though he has no memory of it since we moved when he was 3 months old. Growing up, Michael and I, did not "know" each other because I was pretty much gone. When we moved in with my parent's though, I was able to get to know him and John-Charles really well and for that I am greatful! I love Michael very much because........
-He has helped me with numerous, and I mean numerous, projects!
-He is very witty
-His sense of humor is hilarious
-He is the best example to my kids
-He teases Kindra like no other :( :( :(
-He is very obediant and patient
-He is my "Michael Smichael"
-He takes great pictures hehehe
-He is going to travel the world one day with John-Charles and I :)
-He is very, very, very smart
-He is very faithful, sensitive, and kind-hearted
-One word "Warcraft"
-He carries the "daily suitcase" out to the car every night even when it's a complete blizzard
-He always says to me " I love you, Katie"
-He has my parents wrapped around his finger! (good job, Mike) hehehe
I love you Michael very much and am so happy that you are part of our family. You are the best big uncle-brother to Carter and that means so much to me. Thank's for always being patient with me and helping me out when I need something (unless it's downstairs hehehe)! I hope that we find you the smallest mouse possible for your B-Day!
This pic is for Lyssa and John-Charles to see so that you both feel included! :)
Carter fell asleep on my bed just like this because he did not like the "light shining in his eyes"! Too classic---
Kindra wanted to have a sleepout night on the couch so if she's ok with it, then I am! I would have been scared to sleep out on the couch when I was her age but power to her :) She, ofcourse, had to have one of her horses join her...oh boy!?!

Camp Corbridge
I could hear the kid's downstairs laughing to themselves (and we all know the bath incident that happened the last time they were laughing together like this) and so the panic set in a bit sooner! I asked them what they were doing and they told me to come down and see their campground...huh? So I went down and this is what I found! Honestly...I love it! I love that their minds are always going!
For you parents out there...You may know of the show "Higglytown Hero's" on the Disney Channel...We had just watched an episode of their camping experience so the kid's obviously decided that they wanted to go camping too!
"SSSSSHHHH Mom...we are sleeping!"
I pretended that I was "Higsquatch aka Sasquatch" and they thought that was prettey funny but it is one of those "had to be there" moments! :) But I still thought that it was clever..not me but them!!!

My Favorite Picture of Carter
As I was creating my "tag" masterpiece, I came across this picture that I had forgotten about. This is one of my favorite pictures of Carter! I took this right after we brought Kindra home from the hospital which would have been the summer of 2003. If I could, I would let his hair grow so that I could have his curly locks again but his Dad would never allow it! :( This will just have to do!

Oh Mom---Come On!?!
Carter was so excited to show me what he had gotten in his Valentine's box but I just had to have a picture so this was the best that I got! I am so happy to still have them naive and innocent so I will take it!
.....I got this and this and this and......
