The One Where I Let Her Go To Her First Sleepover, Part Deux
Remember a couple weeks ago where I said The Diva was going to go on her first sleepover? Well that didn’t happen. The little girl’s older brother got sick, so the Grandfather called to cancel at about 3 pm the day we were supposed to do it. Then I didn’t hear from anyone. I tried […]
The Tooth Fairy Pays WHAT?!?!
Last Saturday night, The Diva announced that she had a loose tooth. Her first loose tooth. She’s very excited. I’m a little weirded out. I didn’t think she would start losing teeth at this age, but apparently this is all normal. So now I get to play The Tooth Fairy. It dawned on me yesterday […]
The One Where I Let Her Go To Her First Sleepover
I thought I had more time. I didn’t think I would be faced with this particular situation quite yet. I thought maybe it would happen next year, not in kindergarten. But I have agreed, with great trepidation, to allow The Diva to have a sleepover at a classmate’s house tomorrow night. I am still not […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…{Santa Was Stoned}
Look closely at Santa’s eyes…does he not look like he is stoned? Methinks Santa was toking on the ganja with the elves behind the toy shop. Doesn’t The Diva look adorable? I loved that dress because it reminded me of a big Christmas present. And no, the stoned elves did not make the picture look […]
The Diva’s Christmas Program 2010
I realize it’s after Christmas, but I was busier than a one armed man in an ass kicking contest last week so I didn’t have time to post these pictures and videos. But Christmas is my favorite holiday and I look at it as keeping the Christmas feeling going a little longer. Without further adieu, […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…
The week before Thanksgiving I had this adorable little Pilgrim. The night before Thanksgiving, I got a precocious Smurf. And this is also why The Diva will never get her paints again. HEH. Thanks Crayola paints. I appreciate it. For more Wordless Wednesdays/Wordful Wednesdays, please visit 5 Minutes For Mom, and WordlessWednesday.com {HQ}
But She’s My Baby
The Diva got her first kiss. From a boy. At school, on Wednesday. He kissed her on the nose. He’s five. Ro is is 5 3/4. She says she doesn’t really like him. The kiss happened after they complimented each other’s school pictures. After Mrs. M told us what happened, his mother looked at me […]
Things The Diva Said {Or Did}…
It’s been a while since I did one of these posts. The ones where I announce to the world the crazy things that come out of my amazing daughter’s mouth. But she has said some things lately that made me {and whoever I may be on the phone with at the time}, spit out whatever […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday….{The Many Styles Of The Diva}
Oh that Diva of mine….she has her own style to be sure. She loves to dress up in pretty things. Then go climb a tree or make mud pies. She is a girly Tom-Boy. Just like her Mama. Only I was always shoeless. Climbing trees, playing in the dirt…beating up the boys who annoyed me. […]
I’m Melting…
It’s a million degrees, we have no central air and I live in The IE. I have put an ice pack on my feet to feel comfortable enough to sleep. I feel like I’m walking through Jell-O with this waking up at o’dark-thirty to get The Diva off to kindergarten. And The Free Range Stupid […]
Reason #31 Why You Should Not Introduce Your Kids To The Music You Grew Up On
Back in June, I found one of those 80’s compilation CD’s on clearance at Target. You know the ones… So this one was 80’s New Wave. Right up my alley. I am a child of the 80’s. I graduated high school in 1989. Yes, I’m old. So? I played this in the car. The Diva […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…{The Kindergarten Files}
Today, The Diva starts her first day of kindergarten. Yesterday, we went to Back To School Night and met her teacher. We were given an entire file folder of papers to look through, sign, etc. One of the “packets” was the Kindergarten Handbook. These are the last two pages. You can read for yourself. Anyone […]
