Homebirth

Today a friend of mine told me a funny story. She went on a school field trip with Payton's class to the Log Cabin Museum earlier in the school year. While they were there the workers told them all about being pioneers. One of the stories was about how babies were born at home. The man said that now everyone is born in a hospital. He looked right at Payton and asked, "What hospital were you born in?" Payton's response was, "I was born at home." The man then said, "Of course I picked the one that was born at home!"

Adventures!

While we were at Sea World yesterday, there was one ride that our entire family could go on...Texas Splash down. It is a log ride. So, we all went on it. Kaden was very excited since it was the only ride he was tall enough to go on. Kaden, Adrion, Parker and I were in a log together. As we started the ride Kaden was full of excitement. We started to go up, up, up....as we were going up Kaden said, "We are going on an adventure!" Still with excitement in his voice. Then we got to the top and went down, down, down, down...Kaden started to cry and wanted to get off. I calmed him down and he somewhat enjoyed the rest of the ride. Once we went down the last two little drops and I told him the ride was over, he then said, "I do NOT want to go on another adventure!"

Later that night, we went on the Texas Splash Down again, but Kaden refused to go and stated again, "I am NOT going on an adventure!"
