Mother's Day...
Here's a winner of tale related to our dear boy, Henry. It's just too bad that I didn't see it in time for Mother's Day!! After reading it, I know you'll all be jealous.
At the top of the poster board were the words...
and then the children of the two preschool classes filled in the blanks.
I quickly found Henry's reply and couldn't help but snicker. It's classic and I'm pretty sure it will be a story to tell for years and years to come... an embarrassing story to tell the future fiancee.
"My Mommy is Special because....
He loves me because I don't turn him into a robot! That's some kind of love! Don't hate...I know you all are just seething with envy! You all wish that you hadn't turn your children in to robots!
Of course there were other humorous responses. Three and four year olds are so cute. What they think of...hilarious!
Ben B has already learned that diamonds are a girl's best friend and Ben D is just showing that a way to a man's heart is through his stomach! :)
I hope our little story brought a smile...can't wait to see what he says for Mother's Day next year!
Princess Panties????
Over the last week or so, Audrey has taken an interest in potty training. Given that she's not yet two, we hadn't really thought about it. But when she started INSISTING on peeing ("PEE!!") on the potty at bath time, we said let's go for it! Today, she even 'dropped the Browns at the Super Bowl'. :)
Bring on the Pink Princess Pull Ups!!
There have been a couple of snafus, though. At first, Audrey thought she needed to lift the toilet seat and stand to pee. We nipped that. Then she thought she was supposed to put her hands down in the potty, for what we think, to "guide" her pee.
It was quite interesting explaining that she doesn't have the same equipment as Henry and that she needed to keep her hands out of the potty.
Now our issue is that she will pee and get down, but won't be "done." Up, two drops of pee, down, up, three drops, down, up, one drop, down-- it gets a little old after awhile.
But, if we're lucky, we'll be in Hello Kitty underwear before too long! She's already stealing Henry's!
Now, if we could only talk her into keeping her pants on!!
