The Bold and the Truthful

Froggie overheard a conversation between her daughter and one of her classmates. Sometimes the honesty of children can causse embarrassment, even humiliation. However, in Froggie\’s case, the girls gave her quite the compliment! A pretty princess like Gwen Stefani!!!

Her story reminded me of a conversation I heard when I was a substitute teacher. I was subbing at the 1st or second grade level. I was picking up the class from recess. A little girl at the front of the line said to me, \”You\’re pretty\”. I thanked her, I knew she meant it:) The little boy next to her said, \’She\’s right, you ARE pretty. Boy, my dad would sure like you!\”

Missing: My Lap Part II

Apparently, though I do not have much of a lap these days… I do have knees:)

39 Week Check-up

Dilated to 2.5. Scraped membranes today… My doctor thinks baby will be on the big side… maybe close to 9 pounds. She made sure to point out that there is a 30% margin of error - above or below… Contractions galore… No consistency though…

We are all going crazy here. Each day the kids talk about how they can\’t wait for baby to come. I think they are crawling out of their skin as much as I am!
