  • "It's not school," 5yo insists, "unless it has speriments" (as in science). So far, brainwashing is successful. :) #

  • Wearing my first pair of knitted (not by me) socks. I'm sold! (Too bad I don't knit!) #
  • 2yo's new game: take things out of the fridge, put other things in. It's great fun (for her). #
  • Nothing like a shot of ginseng peppermint tea and some dark chocolate to get this party started! (the lasagna making party, that is) #

  • Email from husband beginning "kudos to my wife maker of fine lasagna" just made my day. What a guy! #
  • Right now, in my house: two 5yo girls, galloping through the house and neighing every so often, for good measure. #
  • One 5yo to other: Pretend you saw a coyote trying to steal a horse (loud neigh) & you had to save it. #
  • I can't get the idea of delving into the Catechism for Lent out of my mind. I'll blog a plan on Saturday (fingers crossed, breath held). #

    I love the If game! I think I would rather be an elephant. This week I learned that elephants can purr. Just imagining it makes me giggle. :-P
