If you were at church on Sunday, and were sitting anywhere behind us...you may have been wondering why my shoulders were shaking uncontrollably through most of the meeting.
I wasn't cold...
I wasn't having a seizure....
I wasn't crying....
well, sort of, I was laughing SO hard I couldn't breathe. Tears were streaming down my cheeks.
Curtis is famous for making me laugh till I cry ALMOST every Sunday. This time though, it was Abbey.
We were singing, and Curtis looks over to see what Abbey is quietly writing down in her cute little Baptism notebook she got. She keeps looking up at me every few seconds....I thought it was to listen to my beautiful voice singing the hymn. Nope.....she was observing things about me.
Please Enjoy: (written exactly how Abbey wrote it)

Your kids are very fun to be with, Candice. The way Abbey described Curtis' teeth is the most hilarious part. I guess it's one way of telling Curtis to take good care of his teeth starting now. :D

a treasure it sure is. i think the misspelling goes a long way to making it so cute too! not sure where she got the fat nose bit from tho!

lol, tell McCookie to please brush his teeth.
I don't think your nose is fat or your arms are wobbly but that was funny. :)
She should write in it every Sunday . . . it definitely is a treasure. I love reading stuff Cole wrote when he was young.
