2 things...

1.) today is the third to the last day of school, so the kids have been drawing us more pictures than normal. and by "more than normal", i mean 87 as opposed to 12. so today, one of the girls brought me a card she had made me (super cute).

"oh i love it! i'm going to hang it on my refrigerator when i get home so i can see it every day."

"ok! but make sure you put it up high so your little sister wont get it."

i would have definately taken this into consideration 14 years ago, but seeing as how my little sister is now 18 and about 4inches taller than me that would just be silly.



2.) two of the boys were doing a puzzle together, when one of them ran over to us in tears.

"what's wrong?"

"well i was doing that puzzle and i didnt want him to help me, but he did and i wanted to do it by myself!"

"well did you tell him that?"

"no..."

"well why dont you tell him right now why you're upset." - (by this time the other boy had come over to tell his side of the story and make sure he wasnt going to get into any trouble.)

"well....well....i cant remember why i was upset right now because i was just telling my mom how i'm a forgetter and i forget why i'm upset sometimes!"


oh kids.
