a few questions

I've been slacking in the blogging department. Life around here has just been so busy and so... full lately. Good busy, good full, but I'm not finding much time to sit and blog thoughtfully. (Or do anything thoughtfully, actually.) But I do have several questions to pose to the universe.

1. How do small children make HOLES in the WALLS? Their room has like ten holes. Are they getting up at night and playing with drills while we are sleeping? And when you ask, "How did that happen?" they say something like "I don't know! I was just reading a book!"
2. Where does the time go?
3. Does anyone else feel incredibly inadequate when they watch commercials for landscaping products? Those ones with guys bragging that their lawns don't have crab grass? Whatever. We don't actually have any grass. We have a mixture of dandelion and clover that we mow.
4. Why don't children take naps? If someone forced me to take a nap, I would say "Thank you."
5. If exercise is so good for you, why is it so hard?
6. Can I just take a tiny peek into the future? So I can see how this thing I'm obsessing over is going to turn out and stop worrying about? I don't even have to see it - just send me a fax saying "Yes" or "No."
7. Why does it inevitably rain on the nights I plan on grilling?
8. Seriously, WHERE DOES THE TIME GO? How is it THURSDAY already? How is it JUNE already??

1. They have super-human strength and super-human ability to forget anything that they've done wrong.
2. I think it goes on vacation every now and then.
3. No, I just think about how rotten their children must be since their paying THAT much attention to their lawn. They can't possibly have any other life!
4. I think this goes back to the super-human strenth thing, they just don't need them
5. Because it is not actually good for you. This is what I've decided.
6. If you figure this out, please let me know, or just peek into mine for me. Also, I'm praying for you.
7. It also rains on the day after you wash your car. God has an interesting sense of humor I suppose.
8. I'm actually not terribly sad that time is moving quickly, then again, my husband is far away and my life is very different from yours. If I had a husband at home and 3 beautiful kiddos, I would want to freeze time as well.

rofl @ the holes, i have been asking myself that for years. i think the toys secretly rise at night and have parties ("toy story" anyone??).
we spent so much of spring indoors due to sicknesses, i am shocked that there is one week of school left!! :)
