TYCTWD


gracie went to TYCTWD (take your child to work day) on april 24th. she was ecstatic!!! she was up and dressed by 7 am before i even had a chance to wake her (trust me - this never happens!) this was the first year that she was eligible, and she has been looking forward to it for over a year. she thought dad's meetings were boring, but loved everything else. there was even a bird show and she got to see two eagles and a snowy owl among other birds of prey. she got her pictures taken by engines and model airplanes and came home with a collection of goodies.

quotables

"is that lily holding baby lily?" -lily's response when i showed her a picture of gracie holding her when lily was a baby.

"drama class is actually a lot of fun." -gracie (this is only humorous in that grace seemed surprised by how much she likes drama class. this from my child who we refer to as "a drama queen" when she is not around.)

"mom, you can go with my teacher and i'll stay home with japie and evan. daddy can go to work, and i'll be the mommy" -lily, in response to learning that she would be going to preschool next year instead of this year.

"mom, if you don't get rid of that smell soon, you're going to have to buy a new car." -gracie when it took me a couple of days to clean out my car after returning from a road trip.

"mommy, they have dress-ups for you!" -lily while walking by the prom dress section at macy's.

"i said the prayer "last"-erday." -lily's replacement word for "yesterday."
