Satisfactory Parent Teacher Conferences

I'm happy to report the kids are all doing well. Ethan and Jocelyn had all E's. Ethan feels he's perfect and doesn't need to work on anything. Or at least he couldn't think of anything to work on when it came time to set a goal. Same with Joc :) It's pretty much true though. They are both good, smart kids. Ryen had some S's (satisfactory's-which is like a C) on hers and her teacher had some funny information about Ryen having a new boyfriend each week. Well this being the case, I told the kids maybe we should start paying for E's. Ethan thought that would be satisfactory. His words.

A Must Read!

Took the kids to the library today.  Logan gave me a couple of books he wanted to check out.  I just added them to the bottom of my pile.  While checking out I noticed this book:

I laughed and told the librarian that I wasn't paying attention to what my kids were adding to the pile.  She asked if I wanted her to check it back in.  I flipped through it.  (I don't know, maybe there was something gripping about it.)  Nope.
If anyone is interested it is 21.25 on Amazon.  

Deep Thoughts by Jocelyn

So we were having a serious conversation with our children about stranger danger. When we were all finished we noticed that Jocelyn had carved us a picture in our chair.  When we asked her what she was thinking she replied, "There was just nothing to do."

Uh, how about listen?

Canon Sillies

"Canon," I said "you're a sleepy head." He said, "I'm a sleepy mouth." I suppose that makes sense if you're drooling or snoring. Hehe.

Logan Sillies

Logan brought me his toothbrush with toothpaste already on it so I could brush his teeth. When I began to brush his teeth he spit and said it tasted like soap. I asked him to show me what toothpaste he used. It was a tube of hydrocortisone cream. Yum.

I was singing a song about how the pizza smells good. Logan then whispered, "That's a weird song."

Deep Thoughts: by Jocelyn

Mom, if I was a fly, would you kill me?

I can't believe people die with their eyes open. I hope I don't die with my eyes open.
