I can't say no

Please tell me that you have a weakness.  I have several.  There are a few things that I  just can not say no to.  First,  Im a sucker for legos. I think legos are great. They encourage building, creativity, imaginations, and cooperation(mostly).  They are one of the very few "toys" I don't mind buying.... after I rob a bank.
 Kates face looking at Hayden is hilarious. 
Im a sucker for this face. Its a problem. I can't tell her no very often. I don't know if its because she is so cute and so funny or if its because Im so tired.  Actually, I do know.  Im tired.
I love a good case lot sale. I get giddy.  Really.  The case lot sale adds are like looking through the Christmas catalogs for kids.  I save up for months. I can't pass up a good case lot sale. Ever.
Today we spent A LOT of time in Provo. While we were killing time, the kids BEGGED me to drive past the MTC and the temple.  I can't say no to that.
Im totally addicted to books. I LOVE books.  Not all books are good... but I love GOOD books. These are the ones Im reading right now.  No, that's not the naughty Shades of Grey book.  I just finished the one in this picture.  Its about a Russian Concentration/Work camp in WWII.  Yes, Im working on the New Testament. We have been told to study Peter, James and John. I figured I should get around to following that council.  The younger kids and I are reading the Rush Revere books in between Haydens book club books. And yes... that is a Cadburry Egg.  I don't like the "real" ones... but Im a big sucker for the chocolate and caramel ones.  MMMM.... Caramel.....
You would think I can't tell super heros no.  But, I can.  I think they are cute and they are pretty super... but I do tell them no. When they want to turn the entire basement into their secret lair, I have to say no. Does that make me a villain? Im pretty sure it does.
