Words of wisdom March 25, 2008

Another crazy weekend in the Space House. I have come to the conclusion that we will never have a calm weekend again until the kids go to college. And then they will be home to do laundry.

This weekend was funny. I mostly finished Soleil’s dress that is just like Luna’s except for the sleeves. I made them different colors so I could figure out who had which dress! Sunday was declared "Wacky Day" in our house. Soleil’s logic was "Christians have Easter, Jews have Wacky Day!" Whatever gets you to sleep at night, kid…

Soleil and I watched Enchanted. It was very funny! I loved it! In fact I loved the ending because (SPOILER ALERT) she opens a dress shop and I said "See! Didn’t I tell you guys that Cinderella should have opened a dress shop!" to which Soleil answered "But MOM, Cinderella was still drawn. Giselle is REAL so she CAN open a dress shop. Cartoons and real life are different!" Oh, good point!

At one point this weekend, Jay was being a bit snarky. Soleil turned around and said "Dad, you’re being SARCASTIC". We looked at each other and just lost it. What 5 year old knows the word sarcastic and then uses it correctly?

Oh and Luna? SHE CHIPPED HER FRONT TOOTH AND NO ONE KNOWS HOW! Can you believe that? Not even she remembers chipping it! I have a photo of her from Thursday evening and her whole tooth was there! Now? A chunk out of the front! EEK!

I called the dentist, nothing to do about it unless the tooth starts to die! Lovely thought, eh?
 

We got an email last night. Soleil was the closest guess for the bowl of Jellybeans at the Purim party. She guessed 1000. The correct answer was 1029. The prize? The jelly beans, of course! Thank Goodness there where two people who guessed 1000 because she only gets 514 jellybeans now. Can you imagine this girl with 1029 jellybeans? Can you say Sugar high? 

Well, that’s it for my weekend. Thoughts of other fun things tomorrow!
