Here, in no particular order, are five random goings on in the lives of our girls.
- Ella got sent to the assistant principal's office for hitting a kid on the playground after said kid taunted Ella for being "slow" during a foot race. At the end of the race, the girl tried to give Ella a high five. "I'm not going to give you a high five," Ella said. "I'm going to give you this." And she hit the other girl in the nose. Ella commented later, "Now I have been sent to the office twice - once for kissing and once for hitting!"
- Halloween costume decisions are solidifying. Ella wants to be a Jawa from Star Wars, so Spencer has already made two trips to Radio Shack for LED lights and other gadgetry to fashion the glowing eyes. Annie is leaning towards an animal of some sort - bird, cat, koala. If I can make it out of a sweat suit, I'm happy.
- Annie wants to listen to the Disney read along version of "Finding Nemo" 30 times a day. The number of times I want to listen to it? Zero. Ugh.
- Annie recently declared that her favorite band is Queen. And her in-home preschool teacher just declared that she is moving...to a house just a block away from the public library where I work! We are the champions, my friends.
- Spencer and Ella have started reading "The Hobbit" at night before bed. The day after they read the first chapter, I found this: (handwritten copy of the dwarves' song)
