Kitchen-aid

Whenever I cook, Carson has a stool that we pull up so that he can watch and help. The other morning when I didn't have to be gone before we woke up I was making breakfast and when I was almost done he got off the stool and grabbed a lid for the pots. I tried to take it from him and put it away but he insisted on taking it with him to his highchair, so I let him.

over the french toast

He didn't want his food to get cold so he alternated the lid using it to keep the food he wasn't eating warm-genius!

over his eggs

He not only like to be in the real kitchen but pretend with his "outdoor" kitchen as well. He brings bark and rock form all over the yard and cooks them. He also puts garbage, his snacks, dirt, etc., in the fridge and microwave. It is pretty funny because he will get upset if you try to take stuff away from his "hiding places"

On the bright side, it looks like he is self-training to be the dishwasher. That's my boy.

Wishing

I had the worst day and I won't bore you with the details...but I am dreaming of a break at this Resort in Hawaii with breathtaking views, a private lagoon, amazing weather, picture perfect sunsets, where I can play all day with my family by my side...

Always Check Your Kids Homework

Mrs. Jones, a first grade teacher, gave her class a homework assignment to draw a picture of the person they most wanted to be like when they grew-up.

(Here's the reply the teacher received the following day)

Dear Mrs. Jones,

I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer.

I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it. Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.

From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.

Sincerely,

Mrs.Smith
