To my knowledge, she's never had anything to do with a fake moustache

Larkin: I hate fake moustaches!

(She declared this while watching Drake and Josh. I was in the room sitting at the computer and didn't say anything in response to it. If you know Larkin or you've read my blog you know that life with her means that you hear crazy things all the time. When I didn't respond she did the kid thing where they call you until you answer them.)

Larkin: Mom ... Momma ... MOM

Me: hm?

Larkin: I hate fake moustaches because sometimes you put too much glue on them and it hurts to take them off.

Me: OK

Remember this girl

Janelle!




I did a post about her and her dating adventure. She went on 31 dates on the last 31 one days of her 31st year (of life). And kept a blog about it. It was so much fun. I was addicted. It was the first thing I would get up and do. Check and see how Janelle's date went last night. All of my friends and family that knew Janelle were reading the blog and we were all talking about it. We laughed about how entertained we all were but it really was so fun! I went through withdrawals when it was all over. I kept checking the blog hoping that she would write more.

Anyway, I bring this all up because there is a happy ending to it all. The last date she went on. Guy #31. They are engaged! (Someone needs to make a movie out of that don't you think? or write a book!)

Here is the Fun with 31 blog that she kept. She has since updated and talked about how they got engaged.

Love you Janelle! I am so excited!

What do you think?

Larkin said: Those reading tests make writing like a big woman's purse.


I tried to talk to her and figure out what she meant by that.
I asked questions like:

So are reading tests hard?
Does that mean a big woman's purse is hard?
So if a big woman's purse is good then what about reading tests? I thought you didn't like those.
Where does the big purse come into play?


I still don't quite understand.
I did figure out that:

Reading tests are hard.
A big woman's purse is good.
She wasn't talking about writing tests.
Somehow math tests are involved.
And the woman is big not the purse.


Larkin finally just got mad at me and I had to stop before I made her cry. I really just wanted to figure it out because I think that the things Larkin says are so interesting and I really think I would have been able to get to the bottom of the "purse" if her sister hadn't started laughing.
