No pictures today, but...

So I don't have any pictures to share---I have lost my camera. It is just misplaced, I am sure. CD lost a tooth on the 3rd. She still has it in her cup trying to grow money. It is like magic you know. As she was explaining it to her cousin who was over as she put it in a cup of water. "Did you know if you put your tooth in water it grows money?" "It does? Are you sure?" "Yea, I do it all the time. Have you ever tried it?" "No. How do you know that it works?" Because I have done it with lots of teeth. I learned it when we went to Nauvoo." (she was off on that info.) "But how does it work?" "The Canadian tooth fairy comes and puts money in your cup." "She does?" "Yea! You just leave it in there and she puts all kinds of money in there. But then she stops. And you can still put it under your pillow and get money that way too!" Her tooth has since grown several coins, but I think the Canadian tooth fairy is done coming for now, but CD wants to leave it in another day or so just to be sure.

J has been enjoying the electric guitar, having friends over daily to practice. One brought a huge amp that is real loud. It is good we have a door to the basement. Today when I was upstairs on the top floor in my room, I was real glad to have a floor in between me and the basement. He has learned the intro. to "Smoke on the Water" and is starting to pick out "Stairway to Heaven" I have heard a lot of "Smoke on the Water".

CE has been spending a lot of time at his friend's this weekend. He has a working game system with Guitar Hero that they have been playing lots of. They also have been skateboarding today. We woke up to snow and heard it would storm all day but instead the snow stopped at about 10:00am and we were up to about 45 degrees and the foot of snow we had in our front yard as about all melted away today. We hear it will storm all day tomorrow now. I hope it storms like today.

I went back to work Weds. but the kids came on Thurs. Both Thurs. and Fri. I went to the elementary and substituted for the afternoon. It is a little extra pay which will come in handy when we start getting all of J's hospital bills. Plus, L needs her wisdom teeth out so I am glad I have my new job. I sure feel busy though! And it is only 3 hours a day!
