On the way to Mass today, Molly was bragging to her sisters about how much money she had. I reminded her that any money that goes into Church will be given to Father (in the collection basket). Molly protested, “how come all the grown ups take their purses into Mass and they don’t give all their money to Father?”
Jake is into EVERYTHING. He loves to unroll toilet paper and throw things in the toilet. He loves to dump all the books off the bookshelf. He loves to empty every tub of toys we have. But most of all, he LOVES to get in Red’s food & water bowls. I would seriously be living large if I had a quarter for every time I’m saying, “Jake! Get out of the dog bowls!” So today when we brought home a new set of dog bowls for Red, why was I surprised when the first thing Jake did after JR brought in the new bowls was crawl over to the box & start ripping it apart to get to the shiny new dog bowls!
I’m think Molly is on the right track. At least she knows that the money belongs in the women’s purses and not in the men’s wallets. Maybe you could get Jake some of his own bowls and fill them with cereal, but then you’d have to keep the dog out.
I’m curious–What does Red say about all this!!!
