The Hugging Game

I thought that this was a fun little story y'all might like. Yesterday I was cleaning up the house (which looks great by the way) and I finished sweeping our porch and taking out the trash. As I came into the house, John came up to me and gave me a big hug. Marissa was a few feet away in the kitchen and John went to her and gave her a hug. John then came back to me and gave me a hug again. Then he got to thinking... mabey I can do both at the same time. He took a hold of my pants and dragged me to Marissa where he took a hold of her pants and pulled us together so we hugged. Then he hugged us both. We went thru this for a few rounds till John got tired of it. Marissa and I didn't get tired of it though. lol. Lots of hugs in the Hughett household.

We have been working with John on the terms Up and Down. He likes to use the word UP for getting both up and down. Crazy little guy. He has also been yelling a lot. I hear that is normal for his age but boy does it get old fast.

This last week was a stressful one. I had 3 major tests at school. One of which was worth 1/3 of my grade I have been stressing all week long and when it was all said and done, I did good. Whew! Boy am I glad thats over. I still have plenty to do but that was too much to cram in one week. Today is looking sooo good and might get up to 57 degrees. I skipped my one class today (forgot what time it was really and missed it) and we are going to go to the park with Rachael and Jordon. It will be fun.

So I better get off the computer and get out the door! Too good a day to waste.
