My daughter was thrilled to see that the flower seeds we planted in the Spring, have started producing some blooms. She was even happier that the great majority of them are her favorite color- PINK.

Silly girl in a tent. I've been away from the computer for a few days, so more Mommy Blog entries should be on their way.

Are You Tired?

When I went to pick Blythe up from daycare after work, she looked especially tired. I asked her if she was tired, and she replied, "Yea, my friend bossed me out." I said, "What do you mean by that?" She answered, "You know...like when someone is so bossy it wears you out."

Ahhh...bossed out. Good one.

A good look for my daughter, when she was 4.

Fun With Napkins

My electricity went off for a few hours last night. I had planned on making pizza at home, but right around 5:00, a small squall blew through and cut power to my house. My daughter was with me, and the complaints about being hungry started to flow from her precious 5 year old mouth. So, I decided we should go out and try to find a restaurant that had electricity.

We ended up at a local Mexican Restaurant. My daughter ordered her favorite, a plain cheese quesadilla. (Not too much of a stretch from a grilled cheese sandwich...) As we were sitting there eating and talking, she started talking about manners, and of course, she was pointing out all the good things she was doing, like not talking with her mouth full, keeping her elbows off the table, etc. I had pointed out to her that it was very polite that she had placed her napkin on her lap.

Suddenly, she picked up her napkin and tucked it into the front collar of her shirt. She said, "Look Mommy! I'm eating lobster!"

OK...I have no idea where that came from.

This was taken a few hours after the storm passed through. The marble-sized hail was piled up on the grass like snow drifts.
