Pretty Morning


This is the view this morning from our patio.
Miss Brunette took the photo.
The weather in the morning is glorious,
a gift from the hot, hot summer.

We Were Booed


We were booed.
So, naturally we had to go around and ghost two more people.
The girls LOVE doing this and consider getting booed an honor.
They had so much fun,
they want to boo two more people tomorrow night.
They creep up to the house,
ring the doorbell
and run like maniacs.
I am parked down the street.
They hop into the car and we take off!

Blonde Girl and the Cake Walk


We went to Trunk or Treat at SRP.
Blonde Girl won cupcakes during the cake walk,
apparently achieving a life long dream.

To CDA or not CDA

I have a lot of CDAs on my mind.
We are moving to CdA, ID.
I am also seeking my CDA for preschool.
Child Development Associate.
I have spent most of the day trying to get it done.
Except, for some laundry, a soccer game
and lunch with Love Man's brother and wife.
BUT - this may be able to be crossed off my list soon.

Spider and Bats


Love Man still reports not being able to put car into gear in the morning,
despite warming it up for 20 minutes.
That car didn't like to shift gears to go while living in Phoenix.

Top Five Funniest Things to Happen at Preschool


This very cute little red-headed girl was watching the boys run wildly throughout the room.
I said, "boys".
She looked right at me and said "they have penises you know."
She was three at the time.


Another boy, during the first few weeks of school, pooped in the urinal.
I was really surprised that he did it and was actually able to do it.
He said "oh yeah, I made a big mistake".
We never told his mother, who would have died of embarrassment.


Another boy, during first few weeks of school,
told me he "thought he would give that urinator a try".


We were looking for someone of Jewish descent to come and make potato latkes in class.

This one boy said they celebrated Chanukah.
I asked him, if they were Jewish and he said his mother was.
Turns out they were not Jewish, but had a harmonica that was blue and silver.
He celebrated with it.
His mother laughed so hard, she told everybody she saw that story.


Several of the children have wanted play dates at our houses.
My partner was joking with one of the children and said "okay", we'll have a sleepover."
The little girl got so excited at the prospect and then would only sleepover if pancakes were involved.
