On Tuesday evening we went to a Parent's Meeting for incoming Kindergartners. We can't believe we're old enough to have a kid starting school! Rick thought it was fun experiencing the nostalgia of being in an Elementary School gymnasium. One thing we thought was kind of funny was when the teachers explained how excited they were about getting iPods. The kids will take turns bringing the iPods home to practice assignments along with the teacher's voice.
Great-guess that means we'll be learning how to use an iPod from a five year old! (Can't they do it on a cassette tape?)

We Belong
heard at our house
- A: "Where is the table to the Thanksgiving toy?" E: "Over here by bookshelf." A: "You're lyin', E. It's not here." E: "I not a lion, I Liza! I not a lion, A!"
- The kids just asked I was going as for Halloween M: "The Mama." A: "You're going as Obama? So cool! Are people going to vote for you?" Ummm...doubtful. I guess the fact that we voted today has got him in a great political mindset, however the sign in our yard says we support the other guy. :)
- While learning about talents in Primary. D: "Who has a talent?" A: "Everyone. Well, except people in Germany. They don't even know what that word means."
- A: "I want to be like Batman because he is a hero." M: "Oh, how do you know he's a hero? What makes him one?" A: "Because he has a cape." M: "Oh." A: "And don't forget he also has a mask." Then we talked about what makes a real hero.

ipods in Kindergarten??? CRAZY. I LOVED when Sheely started Kindergarten (Xavey is next year too!!). School is the best (and most time consuming) thing . I feel like it's more work for me as a parent than it was for me as a kid!!
