"Mom Says I Can"

"Mom Says I Can"

This picture seems to say it all doesn't it? Yep. The look on Jordan's face is worth a thousand words and Bailey obviously adds much to what's being said. I'll let you come up with the exact verbiage. I wonder though. How many times has the 'mom says I can thing' been used without the mom actually knowing anything about it? It's a good question.

This little book is the cutest thing ever! I'm trying to find one for Max Topham, our cute little nephew! Because the book starts out something like, "I'm Max" and goes on to say that Max is going hunting for treasure ... he's dressed and ready to go search pulling his bright red 'Radio Flyer' wagon behind him. I think there's a little companion sitting inside like a teddy bear. Anyway, Max is going searching for treasure because "Mom Says I Can". I got one of them for Danniel for Kyle and one for Sara for Konrad ... 'course we'll have to cross out the Max and add their names. Anyway, Max becomes a pilot (perfect for Austin's little boy) to search for treasure, and a cowboy (perfect for Danniel's), and a ton other things ... I'll have to look at it again before I decide which one is perfect for Max ... but not to worry ... I'll figure it out soon enough!



Here's little Kyle with his Grandma Marchione (aka Aunt Laverne)! Is this the cutest picture er what?!

Konrad, of course, isn't due to arrive until June 28th. We all have decided he'll come much earlier ... anybody have a good guess! There could be a candy bar in it for you!

Maggie will have to send me a picture of Max so you can all see how cute he is ... then 'course we'll have to get one of the rest of the Topham boys!

Anyway, back to the "Mom Says I Can" thing. It's a problem now that I fear will be perpetuated into the next generation ... for I'm sure I will hear many a little voice out the open window declaring, "Grandma Says I Can"! And of course no permission will be needed to use such a phrase ... it will be a given! (smile)
