Mommy, how do worms go poopy?

The wonderful questions of three year olds only get better as you are on an 18 hour drive. We travelled from Colorado to Texas in two days. On the first day of the trip, the children earned enough points to get something at the gas station when we filled up. My son, Azariah, chose gummy worms. As we were driving and it was his turn to sit up front with me, he looks over the gummy worm and in a contemplating voice asks "Mommy, how do worms go poopy?".

The drive was long, but the Lord was good to us. Once, we arrived in Texas, we unloaded the vehicle and went to dinner with my younger sister Kristy. She then went and took her last final while the children and I killed two hours playing ticket games at Mountasia. We won 265 tickets and got about $5.00 worth of cheap toys from the tickets. It took us a lot more than that to actually get the tickets to buy the $5.00 worth of toys. But we had fun. It is kind of hard when your son wants to play and trucking game and mom gets sick from watching the video screen, but I had to press the gas pedal and help steer so I was stuck, with a turning stomach.

We then took a drive to the airport so Kristy could catch her plane. It was a long day, but the Lord was gracious and allowed us to get here safely.
