Today...


Today:  
  • I had a little powwow with some of my little nursery buddies.  I felt totally in my element as they asked me questions, gave me high fives, and asked for my assistance on things.  I had forgotten how much I loved and missed them! 
  • We threw out the menu, waited in lines snaking out the door, and ate at Chick-fil-a for dinner.  It was very cool to see such a show of solidarity for Christian values and free speech.  
  • I met someone at Chick-fil-a who recognized me from this blog.  Her daughter is a classmate of Spencer's and apparently followed along with Spencer's updates via this blog.  It's only the second time it's happened (last time it was through the Recipe Shoebox) and it made my day!
  • I laughed as I remembered how my girly girl Ellie randomly announced the other day that she wanted to learn how to ice skate, so she could play hockey like the Caps' players. 
  • I made some more progress on organizing the kids' room.  It's still got a long ways to go, but it's more organized than it's been in a long time and I hope to be done before the kids start school!  Maybe I'll post a picture here soon...

    Also today...

    Ellie organized a dance party at Craft Club. As she was twirling around the living room she said, "I love to dance! I used to take lessons, but they kicked me out for sneezing."

    Katie, that dance "incident" that Ellie referred to happened almost 3-1/2 years ago and she still talks about it all the time. Apparently I need to find another dance class for her, so she has better memories. :)

    Here's the blogpost I wrote about it:

    Like the young ice skater in the Mighty Ducks, Ellie would make a very cute ice skater! The only problem for you is the lack of nearby ice skating arenas.

    I read the dance/sneeze post. My niece used to attend this preschool. One day her parents my Brother/SIL received a letter discussing a new policy but on the other side of the letter was very confidential information about another student that now everyone could see. When my SIL pointed it out they were asked to leave the program. She is 10 years old and still talks about being "fired" from preschool!
