You gotta be wise

Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds, try and keep your head up to the sky. Lovers, they may cause you tears, go ahead release your fears, stand up and be counted, don't be ashamed to cry. You gotta be, You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard, You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, You gotta stay together

Ronald Reagan

"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide."
~ Ronald Reagan – Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation ~

Gracelyn showing off her handy math skills.



Gracelyn. Her sense of direction is better than mine. When we first moved to where we live now, I am not going to lie- I may have made a few wrong turns trying to get home from places. Gracelyn, however, would immediately point out, "Mom! You're going the wrong way". Thank God for kids. She tells this to my mom as well, because she will take a different way to our house than we usually do.

Today I was taking her to the doctors for her Asthma-ish s/s. (Verdict- Singulair then follow up with her dr. in 2 weeks, as her dr was off).
          **Side note. Her pediatrician was mine from the time I was 3, and all of my siblings doctor - and still is. She is the only pediatrician that has seen all the children in our entire family. We follow her from office to office. I find this amazingly cool.**

So, back on track. We have followed Dr. Chaudhary to her new office, which is inconvenient-ish for us. It is near my parents, so we usually stop there, but 40 minutes-ish away from us. So, this was our third time going to this office. In the past I have turned a few blocks up, and taken the back way in. Today, I didn't. I passed the road that I have turned on twice before, and Gracelyn states, "Uhm. Mooom. You missed the road".  I found this amazing since we have only been there twice before. She could probably give me step by step directions to almost anywhere we have been at least twice.

Seedless oranges. She finds these amazing. (As do I). "How do they grow without seeds? Aunt Karina says everything grows from seeds". Aunt Karina is my 9 year old sister who is a person of worship to Gracelyn.

Her comments on Reagan's driving, (My 16 year old sister who just obtained her permit)?
"What car does Aunt Rea drive?"
--"She has driven our car before"
"Really? Were you crazy"? (In a completely straight faced manner).
--"I think I might have been"
"You think? Oh. You forgot because you are crazy?"

haha. What a crack up.
