HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

This was the mailbox that Tia and Shannon put together for Tia to take to school. It is really creative. The purpose was to make a box that the other kids could put their Valentine day cards in. There was a prize for the most creative box, most beautiful and most humorous box. I thought we were a shoo-in for most creative but the creative award went to an ARD2 box instead. I blame George Lucas. Oh well, there is always next year.

Place for most recent funny lines from our favorite 6 year old

-- An oldie but a goodie - When Senia was born, Tia, Kaitlinn and I went to the store to get Senia a stuffed animal. As we walked into the store Kaitlinn said let's get her some shoes as well so she can walk. As if it were that easy.

-- The other night I was reading a bed time story to Kaitlinn. She said hang on I need to put my slippers on. She then grabbed each of her slippers and hit them hard against the leg of the crib (her sister's crib). I asked her what she was doing. She looked up at me and said "DUH, I don't want to put my slippers on and have there be spiders in them."

-- We went out for Chinese food the other night. In the middle of the table there was one of those soy sauce containers that had a pouring spout. While we were waiting for our food, Kaitlinn announced to the family that they served breakfast as well. When I asked her how she knew that, she pointed to the soy sauce container and said "look they have syrup on the table."

-- We read that if you have ants, that a good way to get rid of them is to put down corn meal. Ants apparently can not digest it, so they will carry it off and then die. So one night, I am making chili and Shannon gets out the corn meal to make corn bread. Kaitlinn walks up and says, "what are you making." Shannon says that she is making corn bread. Kaitlinn replies, "with the stuff we use to kill ants?" --- so clever.

-- The other day at dinner, Shannon mentioned that the following day would be Great Grandma Flowers B-day (Shannon's Grandmother who passed away before Kaitlinn was born). Without missing a beat, Kaitlinn looked up at Shannon and said, "you know she is dead."
