I Need Milk

Last night Janie, Cean and Dimitri came over for dinner and a visit. As the evening was drawing to a close, I started getting Evan ready for bed by setting him up to the sink to brush his teeth. During this time, Dimitri went up to Gary and said, "I need milk." Gary didn't get up and get him some, so he came over to me and said, "I need milk." When I didn't do anything either, he went in search of the other member of the household to see if he could get this milk situation taken care of. Dimitri went into the bathroom where Evan was. I stood in the hall and listened to this conversation.

Dimitri - Hi Evan

Evan - Hi Ditri

Dimitri - Evan, I need milk.

Evan just kept on brushing his teeth while staring at Dimitri as is he were saying, and you think I can help you? I can't reach the milk either! Dimitri just kept staring back at him. They stood there for a minute just looking at each other totally oblivious to the fact that I was standing there watching them and telling everyone in the living room what was going on. Then Dimitri noticed me standing there and said bye bye to me, as he closed the bathroom door. It was pretty cute. Hopefully Dimitri got some milk when they got back to Grandma and Grandpa's house!

Comments

I'm not asking for people to comment, but I have had several people say they couldn't comment because they don't have a google id, so I changed the settings. You can post "anonymously" now, but you should include your name so I know who the comment is from! Otherwise, I'll just have to guess and I might be wrong. Not likely, but I MIGHT be wrong.

5 AM Snowglobe

We went to bed to snow last night and any time this happens, if I wake up in the night, I always have to look outside to see the progress of the storm. Not and easy tasks because that entails finding my glasses in a near blind state. This morning I woke up at 5 AM and attempted to look out the window of the front door. Not really to my surprise, as weather.com had called for a blizzard, I couldn't see past the snow that had drifted up and stuck to my wreath. Now I know I'm not normal in a lot of ways, but I couldn't help but be excited by this human snow globe I was living in. For all I knew, someone had picked up the globe and shook it around a little to get all that snow blowing. I opened the door a crack, which I don't suggest doing when you are in a snow globe, and instantly froze my feet as some snow came in.

I went back to bed and had to fight the urge to wake Gary up to tell him. I stayed in bed for an hour without going back to sleep. I kept thinking of all kinds of things to blog about, of all things, but now my mind is pretty much a blank. When Gary woke up around 6, I told him about the drifting snow. He didn't seem as excited as I was, maybe because he knew he'd have to go shovel. It's almost 7:30 now and Gary is out the shoveling the parts that have to be shoveled, but pretty soon he is going to start up his newest toy...the snow blower. I just have one question though. If the wind is already blowing the snow around, what is the point of a snow blower? :) It should be quite entertaining to see who wins in the blowing of the snow, Gary or mother nature.
