Missing Daddy

It is really cute to see how much my kids really like their daddy.

Every night we read books before going to bed. Right. But tonight Treydon noticed Ashie picked out a photo book of pictures that Treydon has on the shelf. He responded "That's not a book". To which I explained that Ashelyn liked to look at daddy in the pictures (Trey is usually off getting his last wiggles out in the toy room). Trey then responded "Oh, yeah, daddy is in the pictures." He sat down and we spent twenty minutes finding daddy in the pictures. We only went through each picture twice. It was really cute.

Quin is out on rotations and the kids miss him. Ashelyn says "Daddy working lots". She is getting to be quite the talker. Treydon keeps asking when Quin will be home, to which I explain how many weeks are left. He responds "Holy cow, that is such a long time!" It is a lot more exaggerated when he says it.

I am sure glad they love their dad, because this single parenting is not fun.

I was tagged by - Kim. Here goes . . . .

1. What is his name? Quinton Tyler Young

2. Who eats more? Definitely Quin. I have to keep my dainty figure (j/k).

3. Who said I love you first? He did! That was definitely a treat

4. Who is taller? He is. Tall enough I have to get on my tippy toes to kiss him. That's perfect!

.5. Who is smarter? Depends on the subject. School smarts, he retains more (even though I got better grades in school. But I worked hard and he didn't even try). But I have been able to con my kids into cleaning the bathroom. Now I consider that pretty smart.

6. Who is more sensitive? Definitely me!

7. GOT DELETED!

8. Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? Depends on which side is more accessible to the children and then Quin picks opposite.

9. Who pays the bills? I pay all of them. But don't make any of the money! Go figure.

10. Who cooks more? I do! Quin does cook, and it is really good, but not often enough! Although, he would eat out every day if he could.

11. Who is more stubborn? Depends on the subject.

12. Who is the first to admit they are wrong? Me, because I can't handle being mad. Quin can go to sleep and forget about it the next day. A trait I have yet to learn.

13. Who has more siblings? I do, lucky me.

14. Who wears the pants in the family? Depends on if I have the energy to compete.

15. What do you like to do together? I like to do anything together, especially watch movies. Quin likes to watch t.v. together, especially if there is a ball game on.

16. Who eats more sweets? Quin eats more candy, but I am a sucker for chocolate.

17. Guilty Pleasures? Talking about what we are going to do when Quin finally graduates from school. I wonder if it will ever end.

18. How did you meet? His friends hung out with my roommates.

19. Who proposed? Quin did, at Llama Fest. They are the godds of fertility, you know.

*Thanks for making me think of my honey thats thousands of miles away. I am not sure how I am surviving!

I tag Hayley, Ali, and Ashley.
