"How To Wear Out A Toddler," by James

1. Crowd six family members into daddy's pickup truck and sing funny old Ray Steven's songs really loud together.
2. Crowd six people into a booth at the Waffle House and eat a late breakfast.

3. Hike my little legs over many trails and hold daddy's hand a lot.

4. Get my picture taken a whole lot too.


5. Swim in really cold water with my brothers and sister until my lips turn blue and I am shaking all over.


6. Hike around some more and go over a lot of bridges. Watch for ducks and fish.

7. Climb as much as I can and listen to Momma and Daddy say over and over, "Don't get too close to the water!"

8. Ride the choo-choo train with Abbie and pretend it is Thomas the Train.


9. Help my big brothers catch a fish.




10. After six hours load back up into Daddy's truck and fall fast asleep.

  7. Wendy, I love your family. I remember in college you said all you ever really wanted was to be a good mother, and your life is a beautiful example now of just that. I love you girl.

  9. Sounds like what a kid should be doing in the summer. Isn't it sad to think of all the kids that don't get to do this?
