While we were eating supper (without Daddy 
), Mary showed me her corn on the cob and asked what the red was. It looked like blood to me, so I asked her to show me her smile. Sure enough, there's a hole where there used to be a tooth! She's lost a tooth at the youngest age of my four children. She's quite proud of that missing tooth!
So, we called Daddy to tell him. He was so happy to hear her sweet little voice. Sure do miss him at supper time. We've always been a family that eats supper together every night. We get a kick out of magazine articles that recommend a family eating together at least two meals per week. HA! Well, it sure is different eating supper without Daddy. We don't like it much and will be oh so happy when he's home at night again!!!
Talked to Mom as well. She got to talk to Mary and Natalie. Natalie sure takes after her big sister. As soon as she starts talking on the phone, she starts walking. For Rebecca, it's walking and waving her arms around. While we were in NY, she made a phone call...but we were at the pool, so she had to go to the patio area to be able to hear. She was just standing there, so we knew she hadn't gotten through yet...then all of a sudden, the arms were going, so we knew she was talking! 
Last night I overheard a conversation between Rebecca and Mary that just made me so proud. Mary tried on my glasses and thought she looked oh so cute. Then she tried on Rebecca's. Now, Rebecca's prescription is at least twice as strong as mine. When she got them on, she asked Rebecca how she could see with those glasses. Rebecca asked her how she could see without them. So, Mary answers....
APPARENTLY, I DON'T NEED GLASSES.
Now, I ask you, how many five year olds could use the word apparently correctly in a sentence? Yep, that's my babe!!!
Our realtor came today. We're not ready to list, but are thankful for the visit. Gave us some ideas as to what to do to get ready to list and when the best time would be to actually list for sale. Also he gave us a figure for an asking price that he felt we would be able to get. It's not as much as we had hoped for, but much more than what we paid four years ago. Now, the job is to get things cleared out of here, make some improvements and see where we stand in a few months time. It is exciting to be in the moving mindset again. 
I'm about to update Quicken. Payday tomorrow!!! Have a great evening!
