Well, the 40 sale is finally over! Thank goodness. It about killed me! NO, I'm just kidding. The truth is I really had a great time. Shannon and the trips came out everyday and helped and it was nice to have them around. Shannon helped me keep my sanity and the kids were great for Carter to play with. They would play in the yard and if they got hot we'd let them in the house to play with the toys and watch TV. Carter and Jasper had a few scraps. I think Carter was a little gun shy of him by the end of the week.HA! Miss Issy had a pretty nasty fall off the steps and scratched up her beautiful face but I think it will heal nicely with out any scars. Thank God! I don't think I could live with myself if she hurt herself that bad on my watch! Mr. Jonah pretty much kept to himself all week. The loner of the group, but I think he had a great time none the less. I just love those kids! I have observed in the past that Shannon's kids don't eat. I have heard of this phenomena but have never really seen it because Carter eats from the time he gets up till his head hits the pillow. Well, I'm pleased to say that the triplets eat pretty good while they were here. Issy and Jasper eat salad and spaghetti with meat sauce which Shan says that don't usually. I don't know why that makes me so happy, it must be the southerner in me. It's how us Kentuckians show our love! There was one really funny incident this week when the Chewing Gum Thieves attacked. Shannon and I were on the porch chatting when We realized that it had gotten really quite. When there are 4 kids involved you know that's a bad thing. Shannon went inside to check on them and started laughing. The kids had found a full pack of gum and were sitting in the corner shoveling it in as if they had never eaten. Their little mouths were crammed full! They were also hiding the evidence, the gum wrappers, in the corner so they wouldn't get caught. It was so funny. Those kids are a blast. I had a great time this year and can't wait till next year. Even if I don't have a sale I'm going to make Shannon come out everyday for a week!

LOVE YA, Jo-n-Jo
