Wasn't that a hair band song? School's out for the summer....I digress. Yes, I can't believe it. My two oldest will be moving on from kindergarten and 1st grade. They have grown and changed so much this year, but they still try to drive you insane. I think that is their mission in life. And the reality is that you just never know what they will say. For example, Fiona said, "learning sight words was more challenging than learning Mandarin Chinese." Really?
And Nigel had a revelation this evening. He said, "When you go home from 'Dancing with the Stars' they send you over to Jeopardy." And all this time I thought there was extensive testing to appear with that ultra smug Mr. Trebeck. Didn't he really mean, "What is when you go home on Dancing with the Stars...?" Btw, I don't watch the show but I support one of my all time favorite Bulldogs, Hines Ward. When the NFL has a lockout, it is a great time to learn the samba. Gotta pay the bills.
So what does the summer hold in the household? Hopefully lots of laughter, no fighting, and little peeps stepping up and doing some laundry. Wait, let me pick up the crystal ball. No, I see fights over whether to watch "Phineas and Ferb" or "Suite Life on Deck" and threats of "I'm telling on you because you said I was acting like a baby."
Seriously, it seems just like yesterday when they were both babies and wouldn't sleep in their own beds. They are no longer babies, but they are always my babies and I don't mind that they don't sleep in their own beds. Now if only the cat and dog would sleep in their beds..........
