I gotta tell you about this past Wednesday morning – things were crazy in our house, the alarms went off before 7am, Lisa and I were both pushing for time in the bathroom before the kids got up, Lisa rushed to get Jessica, our oldest out of bed and dressed before the bus arrived; our almost 2 year old, Christina was chattering so we got her out of bed and put here on the couch, (I’m usually out of the house before the pandemonium so I don’t usually see this scene, but I tried to be helpful, even though I was running late) Our middle child, Sydney got up and wanted to watch TV, Dad, can I can I – Lisa ran to the kitchen to make Jessica’s lunch while screaming upstairs for the 38th time for Jessica to get going and eat breakfast – Sydney now was moving on to her wardrobe for the day and wanted to know how cold it would be and if she could wear shorts and then there was Christina – she sat on the couch watching all the action and listening to all the comments and then she decided to get up from the couch and walk her almost 2 year old body into the kitchen, where she opened the closet, took out a large box of honeycomb cereal which she brought to the table, then grabbed a plastic bowl and a fork and proceeded to pour her cereal – at which point I jumped in replaced the fork with a spoon and got her some milk to which she responded, “thank you da da” – it was awesome
In the midst of a chaotic morning, a leader arose in a diaper and a jammy shirt, armed with a fork and plastic bowl

Christie Seimer, our Junior High associate posted this on her facebook account – since it’s got our staff in it, thought you might find it interesting. If you’re completely “anti-halloween” (even silly stuff) you may not want to watch it, it’s quite goofy.
