Lunch Date?

maybe not!

Me: Ah, Wednesday lunch is scrambled eggs and waffles.

Kt: Oh, YUM! Waffles!!

Me: That does sound good. Maybe I'll have to come have lunch with you!

Kt: Oh, um, it's not as good as it sounds. Trust me.;-)

Me: So, what time is your lunch?

Kt: Good night, mommy!

Library

Katie was just telling me that she and her friend are working on a history project together and they have planned on spending tomorrow (day off school) together working on it. I asked her if they needed to go to the library to work on it and she replied, "What's a library?" If she asks me that again, I'll sing her the song I sang to Em this morning at the bus stop... that one they used to sing weekly at the storytime we attended AT THE LIBRARY with Miss Rita...

Friends, friends, one, two, three.... all my friends are here with me!

I have more....

Sick-o

Yesterday:

Em: I could not fall asleep last night. I kept on waking up dad.

Me: I heard!

Em: Oh, when you went to bed last night, was your pillow wet?

Me: (giving suspicious bordering on evil eye)

Em: That was me.

Gross. And today... home sick. Guess I'm next!

Dinner Conversation - March 5

Over grilled ribs, baked potatoes and rolls on a very laid back Saturday evening, we talked about the epidemiology of diseases - specifically, malaria, smallpox and AIDS. We also touched on the Ebola virus, how the speed in which it kills it victims actually hinders its growth and how the inventor of the smallpox vaccine used it on one of his children first.

No, thankfully in more ways than one, not a typical dinner conversation.

Gettin' Stuff Done!

The girls were upstairs "doing homework"... and it was getting really noisy. Tony yelled up to them, "HEY, get your blankety blank homework done!" (that's a direct quote - I'm not substituting anything!) Katie yelled back, while giggling, "What did you just call my homework?"

I Can Read!

Katie just said to Tony:

Oh... your shirt says "inspired"..... I always thought it said "inspi red". (Gap - red campaign)

And she's in GT reading.=O

To Do List

I just overheard Em say this to Tony:

You know what we have to do tomorrow? We either have to go to the zoo, go rollerskating or go to the aquarium. We have to do at least one of those things tomorrow because they are all on my "to do" list. I NEED to do them!

Tony basically ignored her. Somehow, I don't think Em's to-do list correlates with his!
