Going to the circus this afternoon!!!!

Let me first start out by saying Lincoln's b-day was great. He literally screamed at every present he opened and he ran in circles and started doing little jigs. It was absolutely hilarious! He would point with both fingers and then move his arms to the air and start singing, too. He so appreciated everything! He was just dumbfounded when he saw the big John Deere tractor coming through the doorway. He was all over that thing and kept saying, "mommy, my tractor. My tractor, E-ceces (Mercedes). My tractor, Ra-ra (Sierra)." It was absolutely adorable.

Mercedes is always very huggy to us all and at the dinner table, she'll get up while we're eating and walk around the table and give us all hugs and say, "I love you so much." She's been doing this for several months and, well, Lincoln has caught on to it. When he's eating he said, "uv ooo, Ra-ra". He keeps saying it over and over until you acknowledge him by saying it back. Then he gets all excited and claps his hands and moves on to the next person. Then it's, "uv ooo, E-ceces" and then it goes to Jon and then to me. It's just funny. Then he has started to just come up to us and give us hugs, too. He sees the girls doing that and it's just cute. He hugged Phoebe (one of our dogs) the other day and he said, "uv ooo, puppy" and then laid his head on her and petted her back. I just said, "ooooh, Lincoln."

So, today is circus day. I'm taking off at 2:15pm today and we're all 5 going. I'm so excited!!! The girls are so anxious to go. I'll write more after this weekend.

Sunday is Easter and we'll be going to my Aunt's this year instead of having it at our house. I kindof wish we could still be home. It's not any driving or rushing here, there, everywhere. We can take our time and enjoy the day. Maybe I'm making a big deal out of nothing, but I just hate driving places and then have to work the next day, too. Ugh. I'll try to write early next week.

Peace.
