About 6 weeks ago Autumn asked if she could get her ears pierced. I told her that she needed to think about it for a while and if she still wanted it done we could do it on spring break. Of course during those 6 weeks whenever she would start talking about it, Chris and I would tell her how much it would hurt! Well, she still wanted it done. She had a range of emotions during the process; starting out nervous, then holding back the tears, and finally happy as can be when she saw herself in the mirror. She is very happy that it is done, but says that one of the ladies was better than the other because one ear hurts and the other doesn't.

On the way home for Autumn's basket ball game Clayton said, "Hey Mom, in my video game I found a wicked cool archer, I'll show ya'll when we get home." Definitely an interesting mix of Bostonian and Texan.

I signed Autumn up for Girl Scouts for the first time.
Mom: I have a feeling we will be buying a lot of Girl Scout cookies this year.
Autumn: It's okay mom you don't have to buy them, I will give them to you for free.
Mom: You can't do that. You have to buy them.
Autumn: You mean I have to make them and buy them?!?

While sitting at the dinner table Clayton started talking about where he will live when he goes to college.
Mom: You can live in the dorms at the college.
Clayton: I hope there are good-lookin girls in my dorm.
Mom: No, they usually have male dorms and female dorms.
Clayton: Oh man...why?
Autumn: Because girls don't want to hear or smell boy's stinky farts!

Autumn came inside from playing in the snow and said, "Mom, my coat is all wet, even the fur on the hood. Mom....is that real squirrel fur?"

After showing my ID to the security guard to get on base, Autumn said,
"Mom, if a bad guy came through the gate and his ID said 'I am a bad guy' that guard should NOT let him on the base!"
