I speak from experience

Two posts in two days. This is very unusual, but I have some very important advice to share.

Never. Use. Blue. Nail polish.

AK picked out dark blue nail polish before Christmas. So, I thought it would be "cute" if we had matching blue toenails for the holidays. Ummmm, remind me to never do that again.

I finally got around to taking the polish off (eewww, I know) and guess what?

I think it's permanent. I can't get it all off.

Good thing it's not sandal season.

Lost Connection

At 2:00 today our Internet went down. No, I wasn't home, but I felt it..somehow. John called to tell me something happened to it while he was playing Wii. Have I mentioned that's all he likes to do these days?
Anyway - let me back up. I have been on the phone with Bellsouth, excuse me, AT&T, tech support twice this week because they keep messing up my email. Then I come home to no Internet - I think they're out to get me!
So, to make a long story short, AT&T did nothing to help restore my connection. It was my wonderful sister-in-law Pammy. She came to my rescue all the way from Mississippi!

I think my withdrawl tremors are finally starting to subside.

Root Soup and Barbie Yoga

We decided to have a relaxing movie Sunday. AK chose the movie and we settled in. I was not paying much attention to her when she began bringing her "babies" from her room. She was setting them up so they could see the movie, too. I focused my attention to the laptop in my lap (of all places) and the next time I looked up, this is what I saw:






The Barbies really cracked me up.

Later today we played outside and AK made "root soup". Here's what I could capture on film.

The Easter Bunny

Several months ago Scooter was talking about wanting a little sister. She was really quite obsessed for a while. She decided that the Easter Bunny was going to bring her a sister. Mr. Ware and I just giggled...how cute. Anyway, she continued to talk, to EVERYONE, about her new sister and how they would play and she would hold her hand when she was scared, etc. Well, tremendous Mommy guilt crept in. We really started to entertain the idea of providing her with a sister (or brother...yes we know). Then her obsession began to wear off. Whew...no more pressure!

Fast forward to last night at dinner. Out of the blue.
Scooter - "Mommy, when is the Easter Bunny going to bring my sister?"
Mommy - "Ummmmmmm...Daddy? Want to take this one?"
Scooter - "I guess I will just call her. Where is the Easter Bunny?"
Mommy - "Ummmmmmm...in her house?"
Scooter- "Oh, well, where's my sister?"

Ok, any advice on this one would be appreciated.

Newbie

I have recently discovered the fun of blogs...reading them, that is. I never thought I would have anything very interesting to say, or enough things to say to have my very own blog. I decided to take the plunge and go for it! Little did I know that it would take an hour to decide on a title for this thing. I got no help from Mr. Ware, as he was busy with Luigi and Mario Cart. But, here I am. I hope to be able to keep up with this. I am a Kindergarten teacher and mother of a 4-year-old. People tell me I should write a book about all of the hilarious action I experience on a daily basis. Maybe.

I'll start here...blogging.
