Did you miss me?

It has been awhile, and I am so sorry that I have not posted anything. It has been a little busy around our house. Maya has been having problems hearing, and that is causing school work hardships. But, she is on the road to getting that fixed, and I know that the Lord will take care of her ears! Meredith is still potty training! She is doing sooo well at daycare! But at home she has nothing to do with it, unless you bribe her with candy.... two weeks ago I actually bribed her with a dollar if she would poo in the potty. I am desperate! Is it so hard to ask of the child to do her business in the bathroom???? Anyway, we are working on it.
We have a new member of our family, Maxamillion Mitchell, or Max for short! Max is our cat, and he has added chaos to our house. But, it has been wonderful! I love him.... Matt not so much, but I think he will someday see the light. At least there are two males in our house now.... well sort of.
We decided that Max did not need to have babies, so a few weeks ago Max made the dreaded trip to the vet to get fixed. I must start this story out by saying that Max thought he was hot stuff.... he was a rather endowed cat. So when he came home he was not very happy with me. After the girls came home, he wanted to move! On the way home from daycare I warned the girls to leave Max alone because he had been fixed. Of corse, the first question out of Maya's mouth was "What does that mean?". "Well that means Max can not have babies anymore". I was very proud of that answer, until "Mom, boys can't have babies!". So I had to explain further "ok, well Maya it takes a boy and a girl to make a baby." That seemed to passify her.
So, we get home, and Max meets us at the door with that evil, I hate you look on his face. I left the room for a min and all of a sudden I hear "Mom, they cut Max's butt off!!!!". Oh dear! I walked into the living room and my poor cat is looking at me horrified while Maya has his tale lifted in the air, and she is inspecting his rear end. Yep, never a dull moment at the Mitchell house. Max survived, and is doing much better now. He does not seem to be as upset. and the girls have stopped asking questions. So, we won't have to have "the talk" just yet. Now, won't that be fun!
So, that is what I have been up to, I hope all of you are well. I want to hear from you. Tell me about your house holds!
I will try to write soon! Christmas is right around the corner!
May you all have a blessed holiday!
With love,
Super Mom!
