The Itsy Bitsy Spider

John has made up a second verse to the Itsy Bitsy Spider song that he does each night with the kids when he is saying good night to them. Well tonight the kids asked me if we could call Daddy and sing it with him before bed. I didn't realize John was out at a restaurant when I called but he was so great and went outside to sing to the kids. Annie & Charlie where laying in bed and Audrey was on my lap on the floor, I set the phone on the dresser on Speaker Phone so they could all hear and sing a long. All of a sudden Audrey starts looking at the phone and once she realizes it is daddy her little lip starts to quiver and she starts sobbing, then Annie breaks out crying and Charlie is sitting there with tears in his eyes. Poor John! I don't think that was the response he was expecting. I finally got the kids all settled and asleep - along with promises of a gift from daddy on his return.

We have been having a really quiet weekend here at home. It has rained all weekend so we stayed in doors for the most part. Marissa (Dante's wife) came over for dinner and we had a great time visiting and chatting. She makes the best Salsa ever! John is going to be so excited when he gets home that there is some left over for him.

Monday's are a busy day at our house, not only is it the day we get back on schedule but Annie has ballet and Charlie has Karate. (Just as an FYI Annie has her Ballet recital on June 8th so mark your calendars.) We are excited though because John comes home Tuesday and we all miss him tons!
