As El and I discussed the new term heatherific... it reminded me to tell El the story of our visit to Little Rock, Arkansas. We went up to welcome our new arrival, Lilly (Heather's first child). Just as we arrived after a LONG drive, El said, "This better be good Mom, you were the wanter". Yes, Lilly, I was the wanter to come and meet you:) Anyway... as we walked along the street in the farm market yapping our gums (as usual).... El(4yrs old at the time) pipes up with, "Heather, you have cocktails on your belt!" We cracked up. How many 4 yr. olds recognize a martini glass and know the word cocktail? I have to attribute that knowledge to her Daddy. The picture is of Lilly and El 4 years later.
When I named my original blog I did not have time to think of a meaningful name. I named it what I was feeling at the moment, "Busy Busy Busy". While in Ohio we were discussing favorite movies and scenes. I mentioned that I was quite fond of Mary Poppins. I then broke out into song with "A Spoonful of Sugar". A little time went by and we heard Eva singing, "A room full of sugar helps the medicine go down..." Welcome to A Roomful of Sugar.
