Lilly's new favorite thing to do is steal my grocery sacks and trash bags from under the sink and shovel them full of toys, books, shoes, and anything else she can get her hands on. There have been many times when I couldn't find the remote or my cell phone and have had to empty out about five grocery sacks before they show up. After she has filled every sack she loads them onto her grocery cart and pushes it around the house like I have seen many homeless people do.
On Super Bowl Sunday, Lilly helped me make white chocolate popcorn. I have never let Lilly watch the popcorn pop because my dad always told us to stay away from the popper or a kernel might take our eye out. It obviously scared me enough that I have kept Lilly away while I am making it. But tonight I was feeling rebellious and Lilly kept crying on my leg because she wanted to see. Well, I finally gave in and I'm glad I did because I dont think anything could have brought more joy into Lilly's life. She pointed and screamed, "Wow, what's that!" every time a kernal popped. A few times she almost fell off the counter in a panic when kernels started getting really wild. It made me want to make popcorn everyday.

JEN, sounds like your dad was a little over cautious about eye damage! Maybe because of his friend Bert's accident, resulting in his glass eye! I'm glad Lills had fun watching the corn pop! Thanks for your fun blogs. It makes me feel like I'm almost there! Loved talking to you today, you cheered me up!! Kiss Lilly for me and tell her granna loves her!
