HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CATHERINE!

I hope you're having a fantastic birthday,

Catherine! I'm still thinking about your birthday request - still thinking. ;-)

It is so hot today. It got up to 94*, and I didn't even want to *think* about going outside. Still, we'll be heading out there in a bit, if for no other reason than I think the boys would probably not survive if we stayed inside all day long. (At least, they seem to think so - heehee.)

Janiece is coming over later to scrapbook. We don't get to see each other nearly enough now that the boys aren't in preschool over the summer. I also called Stephanie, Chris and Ann to see if I could get a little moms' group/scrapbook thing going on, but as I had to leave messages at each of their houses, I'm not that optimistic that they'll all make it. However, Janiece and I are pretty good at being rowdy on our own. ;-)

I slept with a teddy bear last night. I'm not sure if I've ever slept with a teddy bear before. Growing up, I had a baby blanket (which I affectionately named 'Yellow Blanket' - none of those froo-froo names for me), and I had that on my bed each night until shortly after

Philip and I were married. It's been packed away for years now. In middle school and high school, I had teddy bears ON my bed - pressed to the corners or foot of my bed - but I never actually slept with any of them. But last night, while I was putting away some of the boys' stuffed animals, I found the new teddy bear that I 'won' at the recent Spring Spa Spouse night, and he was so fluffy and adorable that I decided I'd take him to bed with me.

I woke up with the snuggly bear still cuddled tightly under my chin - such a good bear. :-)
