Dear Daddy

Dear Todd,
We read this chapter today: http://scriptures.lds.org/en/search?search=Mosiah+11%3A14
It made me think maybe it's not good to want lots of stuff, which I do.
Yesterday Nathan saw a puzzle piece with a dark background and bright orange fish on it and he said, "These fish are brilliant!" (said, bwilleeant)
It rained yesterday and we went to Zupas and got soup. We went grocery shopping and I only had to put one thing back to be under budget. Alex helped me bring in the groceries without even asking. Alex thought it would be a good idea to watch The Santa Clause 3 on the computer and drink hot chocolate with whipped cream. We started the movie at 11:45pm. The boys both slept with me last night. I was in the middle and the boys were squished up next to me. How I wished you were here this morning to get baby when she woke up so early! This morning the boys put all their coins together and are going to get Sponge Bob mini candy canes they saw at the store yesterday and we're going to do math with them today. The boys say they hate math, but they always want to do more and more...
We went to Africa in history and I told them that one day I'll take them all over the world, even to Africa. They were SO excited but I told them it takes lots of money so it wouldn't be for a long time. Nathan said not to take them any place scary.
I love you!
