This Week at the Fords: Autumn is here in full force and we are beginning to enjoy cool days and warm colors. The International's Household Study met for the first time last Sunday evening. Jim will begin teaching the Heidelberg Catechism this weekend. We are looking forward to a year of in-depth study. I unpacked a box of Jessika's clothes from last winter for Monika. It amazes me how much fits her. She is a tall gal, while is strapping. I believe she could be the first female professional football player. She could make a great Beast in a the play, "Beauty and the Beast," while Erika would be Belle, of course. Monika could be Chip. I guess that makes me Mrs. Potts and Jim? Well, I think he would make a great Maurice! (Even though he looks like Gaston!)
Illness of the Week: We had to go to Urgent Care again at the beginning of the week. Monika is not terribly sick, but has a mild case of croup. Croup rhymes with poop, just in case you didn't know.
Words of the Week: "Ba-wey, Ba-wey, Ba-wey!" You have no idea how sick we all are of hearing that name, not to mention those songs. I wake up to find a video top being shoved in my face the whining begins. The only good side to this mania is that Jessi can say "please" now when asking for Barney, so he IS teaching her something. She aslo answers quite emphatically, "yes," when asked if sh would like to watch Barney. It is one fo the rare times she will not answer no!
