Favorite Lines



We have been in school now for a little over a week, and here are some of the things that I have heard from my children......
"Mom, it's so early." r
"When is brother coming home?" (It was only 9:30am, when this question was asked.) m
"I actually get four recesses!" r
"When I grow up, I will take a pink lunch box." m
But, this is my all time favorite.... My son was showing me all his work that he did in the week, and explaining every part of it. He was working on a book all week entitled "All About Me." In this book the students practiced writing the whole alphabet, then they were to color three crayon shaped spaces their favorite color, then label it. Well I noticed one was colored and labeled red, another blue, and the other one was colored, but not labeled. It was colored in green and brown tones......
"Well, I couldn't finish because I didn't know how to spell camouflage, and my teacher didn't know what I was talking about."
So, in case you were wondering, his favorite colors are red, blue, and camouflage!!!!!!
Happy school days!

Hip hip hooray! It's project day!

So, I opened a box last night, and much to my surprise I found several unfinished projects. I was so excited because I thought I had lost this box amongst all our moves. Well, now it is open, and ready to go. I am finishing up on some stitching projects. The only problem is that I do not know what I am going to do with them once they are done. I have one stitched rectangle for each month. Each one has a word and a picture on them, and they coordinate with the holiday or theme of the month. So, any suggestions on what to do with them once they are all stitched? Happy project day!
