Gavin again
We are watching a movie with a Michael Jackson impersonator and I went to show the kids what he really looks like. They were amazed at the before and after pictures, how a good looking man can turn into what MJ has become. Gavin stared at the picture for a second and said "I would keep it a secret that he's not a girl".

Still horrible about this!
Anyhow, lately Gavin has been throwing some funny ones out there. The other night he was trying to convince me that he had two stomach, one for his dinner and one for the dessert. That's why he can be full of dinner but still have room for dessert. I was trying to get him up this morning and he told me that it was cold but he was trying to fart because it activated a force field around him to keep him warm.
Viva is going to be in her school talent show this year. She is singing 'We're Not Going To Take It" dressed as Dee Snider. I'm desperately trying to get all of the lyrics in her head now. I cannot wait!!!! O and G wouldn't do the show this year :( I tried to get O to do the Flobots 'Handlebars' but it was a no go.
The other day I was so happy for Ophelia, she was invited to join Duke University's talent search program. Basically it is an extra gifted program through them for students who scored in the top 5% of their grade (I'm guessing in each school). She wants to do it and I hope she can keep up and not lose focus on it. Gavin was in his Boy Scout pinewood derby and won second place for his age group. He was so happy because it came with a trophy.
I was trying to show them a little of their family tree today. I had spent the day with my great Grandmothers' nephew's daughters visiting Grandmother Randal's sister-in-law who is 96! I actually had a great time. I really appreciate more the importance of our elder family members. I just wish that I had done more about this for the past few years. Anywho, she gave us alot of stories about our family. I miss Grandmother Randal and wish I had more of her history in hand.
Well....rambling as that was....i guess that is it for now.
