Derby

I know these very nice people who live too far away from me who have horses. If you want a very nice horse, I can get you their number. Doesn't he look like the type of guy you'd like to buy a horse from?

On our long drive to Pops and Grandma's house this week, we stopped and stayed with them and they let us ride their horse, Derby. Wyatt even got to check him out (while he still chewed on his fist of course). I don't even like to think about having to ride on a four wheeler with daddy, but once I got in that saddle I realized that I'd ride on a horse with him anyday. It's not loud like all that farm machinery. My dad, Dr Brad and I went on a little ride, and I sang for the horse while we were riding. We even went a little fast.

After our ride we walked out to the pasture to look at their baby horses. They really liked me.

Thanks a lot Dr Brad and Dr Shelli! Maybe someday you can talk my dad into buying one of your horses for me.

Question

Can someone tell me why Wyatt is always chewing on his fist and why he can't get out of the places he gets himself stuck in?

Paper Mache

How to paper mache a sink.

1. When you're sitting on the potty, mess with the toilet paper a lot so your mom moves it to the counter in the bathroom.

2. Play very nicely at the bathroom sink with the water running. I call it "washing my hands." You'll need a stool so you can easily reach the water. If you wash your hands nicely for several days in a row, then you'll have some time where your parents don't watch you and you can proceed to step 3.

3. When your parents are busy getting ready to leave for the weekend, ask them if you can go wash your hands.

4. Grab the toilet paper on the counter after they leave.

5. Unroll it a little and put the whole roll in the water.

6. Soon the sink will start to fill with water.

7. At some point in here it doesn't hurt to pull out the drain plug. That way a chunk of toilet paper can get stuck in the drain so the water will drain more slowly.

8. As the water fills the sink, mess with the toilet paper so it gets all torn up.

9. Hope that your parents don't catch you until the sink is almost full.

10. Let the water drain while you're gone all weekend and the sink will be paper mached when you get home!
