We're hopping on a plane in a few hours, so last evening was spent in preparation. After dinner I was trying to get Keanu to come upstairs to choose some toys to bring in his backpack for the plane ride.
And then?
and then we'll take a shower
Then?
We'll read a story.
Then?
We'll go to sleep.
(he turns around to go back downstairs to watch TV as if to say "If we're not leaving tonight, I don't have to get ready yet."
Too excited to sleep, he stayed up well past his mother's bedtime!
Today we went out for lunch and have just returned to put the last few things in the bags and then head to the airport in about 2 hours. On the way home, Keanu asked
Where are we going?
Home to take a nap and put the bags in the car.
No! Mine is already here. (He'd brought his backpack along with about 5 toys with him) Let's go to the airport now.
I guess that's all you need for 3-plus weeks!

"Look, Mommy, I found it he mommy!" explained
Obviously no one is figuring this one out. I have to admit, it's pretty tricky.
If you look carefully at the picture, you can see a few pairs: Xx, Tt, Uu and hidden behind her hand there's Ii. She's matching upper and lower case letters together, thus the "mommy" and the "baby"!
Isn't she creative?!

What do kitties drink?
This post and then this one reminded reminded me of a conversation Kate and I had the other day on our way home:
Me: Kate, look! There are baby kitties over there!
Kate: Yeah, kitties! I like kitties.
Me: (after watching them for a minute or two) Kate, do you know what kitties eat?
Kate: (shakes head)
Me: Little kitties like this usually drink milk.
Kate: Kitties no want it drink my milk (running away) Me no like little kitties.
Perhaps I nursed her for too long, perhaps she was verbal quite early, but whatever the case Kate thinks she has "milk" on her chest. I think she was pretty scared!

"I don't want it cry!"
said Kate, this morning as I combed through her bed head. Yay for a day of combed hair and no tears to go along with it!

Top Ten
feelings a mom can have...
Having your son rush to your arms with a grin the size of the moon after school on Friday saying, "Guess what? The card I made for you is in my backpack!" No surprise. No delay. Just pure excitement over something that he made for me.
