My mom the murderer

Today we buried a St. Joseph statue in the front yard

In moms head: Fun toddler activity. We get to dig a hole in dirt, stick something in it and re-cover with dirt.
In Sam's Head (as best I can gather): Oh my gosh, my mom's sticking one of my toys in the ground (St. Joseph looks an awful lot like a G.I. Joe, and G.I. Joe is clearly a living breathing human....small as he may be).
MUST dig G.I. St. Joseph up immediately and save his life....

"G.I. St. Joseph, I'm coming!!!!!"



30 Seconds later and unable to find G.I. St. Joseph,
Sam was convinced Spiderman was buried somewhere in this area.

"Why aren't you helping me? I have lives to save!!!"

  1. I want to say this post is funny, but I'm SAD that you're burying a St. Joseph :( It worked really well for us, but maybe Sam is on to something because we heard from many people, including our realtor, that there's a certain place to bury him, but it does have to be a little away from the house and like in the East of your house or something???
    Let's get together soon!

  2. Maybe try displaying St. Joseph prominently in your house and praying a novena to him? St. Joseph is the greatest!!! I hope your house sells quickly and that when you get back from Hong Kong, you end up in our neck of the woods...
