Giggles

Caitlin came running to me upset there was not a cup in the bathroom because she needed to "giggle."

My Dog

My Dog

By Carsten M.C.

I used to have a dog. I got him when I was about 5 or 4. He was really, really, really, really, really cute. I used to not play with him much. And my dog jumped on me and knocked me down, so my mom got rid of him. And so now I miss him a lot!!! And so whenever I think about him I cry. And now I think you know I want him back. So now I am glad for other kids and that they have a dog. So I want another dog even though I will never have as precious memories. I just want a pal to hang out with so I don't have to be lonely. At least I have a dad and a mom that are pretty cool so I can hang out with them. They are radicool!!! The End

(An essay Carsten wrote at school. I thought it was just too cute.)

A Hallmark Moment

My Mom found the perfect card to go along with my previous post.

Public Notice

Public notice to the White Oak Elementary Mom who drives a black Ford Escape who lives in Fairview Park Subdivision in Sugar Hill, Ga... Your child is in kindergarten now, they should not need you to park your car in the carpool lane, get out, walk a...round your car, open their door, unbuckle them, take them out of the car, hand them their lunch box, put on their backpack, hug them and kiss them and then proceed to get back into the driver's seat while tons of parents who have already learned to cut the apron strings are waiting for 5 minutes to get on with the few precious hours they have without their children. Thank you!

She just can't handle it.

So Caitlin came home today talking about how so-and-so didn't want to be her friend and wasn't letting another little girl be her friend either. After getting over the fact that this crap starts so young, I decided to offer a little advice.
I asked "Caitlin, Do you want to know the secret of how to have lots of friends?"
"YES!" said Caitlin.
So I proceeded to ask her if she could handle it. "Are you sure?"
Then I whispered in her hear "If you want to have lots of friends you have to be a friend to everyone and be nice to everyone."
She immediately jerked back and said "I can't handle that!"

1st Day of School 2009

Carissa and Ms. Rainwater

Ms. Brott and Carsten

Ms. Bobbie, Caitlin and Ms. Nicole

Caitlin was super excited to start school this morning, she did get a little nervous when we walked in the classroom. She grabbed my hand when we got in but quickly settled in. I can't wait to hear about their days! So cute!

The kids asked for donuts and sushi for the last weekend before school started.

Look-a-like

I was sitting behind this at a red light and could NOT resist taking a picture. I was laughing so hard I could barely get the shot! This totally reminded me of that commercial where they show animals and owners that look alike. You can barely tell which was the human.
