The Whole Shabang: Haboob!

Haboob!

My kids got a front row seat to tonight's storm.

Wind, dust, lighting, then a light sprinkle.

So far this year's monsoon has been pretty bleak.

Maybe later we'll get some real rain.

This was the happiest I've seen Kamber all day.

Thank you haboob!

I'm sitting at the computer and Todd comes in. It's 9:30pm and he's got on his lion slippers.
T: Mom, I need more paper.
Me: Todd! Why are you awake. We put you to bed and hour and a half ago. (Heading back upstairs.) Why were you coloring?
T: I wasn't.
Me: You weren't? (Go in his room and the light is off and the crayons weren't out.) Were you dreaming about coloring?
T: Yeah.
Me: Go to sleep. You have school in the morning.
T: I already said my prayers.

T: Mom. Can you do me a favor?
Me: Sure. (How could I say no)
T: Will you color these for me?
**He had printed out a bunch of sports things then cut them out. I did color them and he glued them on a piece of paper.

Todd: Mom, I want milk.
Mom: Just a minute Todd.
Todd: I want milk now!
Mom: I said you need to wait a minute and don't talk to me like that.
Todd: You're mean! (Then he runs away because he knows he's in trouble!)
