A pony ate my sapphire

We're back from vacation in lovely Sunriver, Oregon.

A pony really did eat the center stone of my ring, which was Brody's birthstone, a sapphire.

New words that Brody has learned on this vacation:

~Hey (eg, "Dada! Dada!" (no response) "HEY Dada!!!")

~Come (eg, "Come here!")

~School (eg, This morning, when I was dressing Brody to go to school (daycare) "No school, mama, no school! Stay!") (reentry into routine after non-stop fun-filled vacation is hard)

~Guy (eg, playing with "guys" who are either army men, ninja turtles, or action figures of any kind)

~Mamadada (eg, when the 3 of us are together, and Brody can't decide quickly enough who to call, talk to, etc, we are the unified "mamadadamamadada")

Pics to follow. . .

I often think of you when I read Christa's blog. And vice-versa. Thought you might enjoy the book she talked about recently. http://freelancemother.wordpress.com/

OK. The loss of the sapphire is almost worth being able to say that a pony ate it.
