This morning my daughter Emmiko woke up and went into the kitchen and made BoBo
a special birthday breakfast. They are a year a part and I love
how much they adore each other. Emmiko loves to do special things
to make her siblings happy, and BoBo is always so enchanted with her.
It was a nice way to start off the day, even if my back still
feels like I've been beat with a sledgehammer. Me and Geoff just
got back from a special lunch date with Bobo, and now we are going to
give him his birthday present… a BB gun. He is going to freak
out. He thinks we got him a fishing pole.
I am going to go see who the last commenter is right now…. ok, this
might take a while. I cannot access that blog pg so I am downloading my
emails to figure out who the last commenter is. I have almost 300
emails coming down right now. Holy Moly. You people are
crazy!! Boy my internet is going slow. We'll do the next
contest different (by the way, the next contest is going to be very
cool, too). Ok, here we go: The winner is: JAYBIRD .
Congratulations! you are one kooky lady. Bek and Leigh2 and
CMMomma I am giving you guys consolation prizes for spending your
entire day trying to win (who says it doesn't pay to be insane?)
Send me your addresses, email me at JenIG@TOSMag.com
Now go over to Gena's page and enter her contest….

Woohoo!!!
I just have to say….yes, I did spend most of the day here at HomeschoolBlogger. And what happened was I got to read alot of blogs and learn so much about lots of different people. It was so fun listening to Bek sing and watch Leigh2 squirm! 🙂
THANK YOU so much to the folks at K'nex that donated this great prize. And to the poor little TM servers…I am sorry and I promise to knock it off now.
And thanks to Gena. Now go get some rest!
p.s. Don't shoot your eye, kid!

Congratulations Jaybird!
At least I won something for being persistant. I do agree that the next contest should be a little less insane. This way just begged for uncivilized behavior.

Happy Birthday, BoBo!!
We got Indy a fishing pole for his birthday. If we got him a BB gun he would shoot his eye out. My dh gave this boy a pocket knife a few years ago and literally every time he’s tried to use it he has cut himself — including a trip to the emergency room from one incident. He hasn’t used the fishing pole yet, but I hope Belle isn’t around when he does. That girl is always getting hurt and I can just see a big hook stuck in her leg or something.
I love your Avatar, Jen. You two seem so much in love. Sigh. The way it should be.
Jennifer 🙂
One of these days I’m going to have a contest and you won’t be exempt. It won’t be a KNEX or anything, but those things are cool. Belle made me a phone from one for my birthday. But I had to give it back.

Hooray Hooray! It’s OVER! And it only took 1062 comments… That is totally crazy. I think next time you need to do the random draw thing or let Dawn choose again. 🙂
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOBO!!!
That is so very great that Emmiko loves him so much. And boy, what a lucky ducky birthday boy to get a BB gun! My boys would be SO EXCITED…but fortunately they are too young for one and will probably shoot their eye out or something. They do grow up fast, don’t they?
Love,

Meningitis? Are
you serious? I hope you are going to get that checked out. Jen? JEN? Are you still conscious? Someone slap Jen and get her to the hospital pronto!
I hope Bobo is enjoying his beebeegun. All Jammie wants is paintball guns! Yup. Life will be perfect just as soon as I get an acreage and some mean paintball guns. Then I can call them precious and they’ll love me like I will certainly love them….right coie?
snicker snicker..
mmmthat reminds me, get me a snickers

I totally missed the ending! How anti-climactic to have done this all day and then hand the computer over to my daughter! LOL Congrat’s, Jaybird!

comment hog?
now i know what your sister means when she calls you a comment hog. over 1000 comments? did you shut down the system with all that traffic? where are all those people when i’m running a contest? why is it easier to comment than post a photo of yourself? you have to make your contests more difficult, jen. take a lesson from me. and while you’re at it: enter my contest with your crooked neck.

You have a sweet family. I can’t wait to start meeting more of them. Unless you really think you have meningitis, it sounds like you need a chiropractor. Email or call me, and I can give you the name of 2 good ones.
Feel better.
