burn the self

When we were playing with blocks, we saw a "juggler" on one side. Isaac asked, "What's that?" and I told him. But, since miming wasn't cutting the mustard, we got on trusty ol' Youtube for some actual demonstration. Isaac really thinks juggling is cool now. We had originally watched some videos with juggling balls. Today we got a little crazy and watched some with juggling fire clubs. Isaac thought it was dangerous, and said: "Burn. Burn self," to the guy in the video. When the guy did not heed his advice, he said, "Careful, burn the self!" Then we were all done with that video. Enough of crazy juggler pyromaniacs.

We went to church for Palm Sunday. We got there nice and early, hoping for a fun procession into church. (Isaac is trying to "drive" the truck in these pictures) But, they didn't do a procession! They just started out in church. I was a little disappointed, but it is a pretty big church. We got blessed palms anyway.  

 Isaac and I actually sat in the church for the first time in a long while, and he was pretty good! We are going to try this from now on. It is just too crazy in the back of the church there and it inspires extreme naughtiness in Isaac. The key is to bring lots of snacks. Next time I will bring more bagels. 3/8 bagel did not cut it.

Also on Friday we went to the airport to say bye-bye to Boompa for the summer. He was going up to Alaska. It turns out that Boompa lifted something very heavy and hurt his back, and it is not too good. So he might be coming back after all for a few more weeks if things do not improve. Boompa, remember, careful, burn the self. Or hurt the self. Very much. If anyone would like to pray for Boompa's back to feel better soon I'm sure he would appreciate it.

 Isaac also found one of the wheelchairs at the airport. He looooooooves wheelchairs and pushing them. Nana says she will have a job for him in a few years.

Anyways, we are happy that it is Holy Week!
