Five Little Pumpkins

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate.

The first one says, "Oh my, it's getting late."

The second one says, "There are witches in the air."

The third one says, "But we don't care."

The fourth one says, "Let's run and run and run."

The fifth one says, "Isn't Halloween fun."

Then Ooh went the wind and out went the lights.

And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!

The boys have both learned this poem at school this year and have loved it! Watching Daniel "run and run and run" is hilarious.

So here are my three little pumpkins before school this morning.

Good week. We welcomed a new cousin, George Russell Watson, into the world on Wednesday the 21st. Haven't gotten pictures yet, but we hear he looks like Daniel! Enjoyed a birthday celebration last night for Daddy...35. Dee and PawPaw joined us for dinner and we thanked them for having and raising such a good guy!

Speaking of grandparents....aren't they great!! Daniel got a day with Dee on Wednesday all to himself. He had a ball playing Candyland and bowling on the Wii. He also enjoyed his trip to Chick-Fil-A. Philip spent Thursday afternoon with GranGran. They watched cartoons and ate PopTarts. How fun! I don't know if the grandparents realize it, but one on one time for the boys is really special. They rarely get it at home with two other brothers, so these times are precious. I so remember my afternoons spent drinking Sprite (never allowed at home) and playing Go Fish with Mammaw. I am grateful that the boys will enter adulthood with their own memories!
