Grassy-Ass and the Blogging Hiatus

Just thought I would let you know. I am going to be taking a break for a little while. Hope you all have enjoyed sharing a glimpse into our lives. I will leave you with one final story.
The kids are apparently learning Spanish. This is completely unintentional on my part (very much intentional by PBS). Anyways, we were eating lunch the other day and I gave L.J. his sandwich and he looked at me and said, "Grassy-ass, Mommy". "What did you just say?!?" I exclaim! "Grassy-ass, Mommy!" "Honey who taught you that?" b/c right now I am starting to panic that some crude creature has been using inappropriate language around my 3 yr old. and it will take me forever to undo the damage. At this point my mother, seeing the panic on my face, chimes in and lets me in on the joke and says to L.J., "Gracias L.J., good job using your manners!" Now I know she is dying laughing on the inside, but she manages to keep her composure. I think I'm going to be cute, so I say "de nada" [thank you in Spanish for those of you not up on your PBS] to which both children look up from their plates to ask me, "Where's Daddy?!?" GEEZ!!!
