Pretty good day today. Drew some more with Justin, at his suggestion - he asked if we could play the "connect the dots" game again. And he went diaper-less for most of the day. We also made ice cream. As Justin put it, "We had a messy day today!! But it was good!"

Going to the Museum of Civilisation tomorrow with two other homeschooling families. Hopefully this will work out a little better than the Friday Drop-In that Wasn't. I know we're looking forward to it, hope the other families are too.

You know, it feels pretty good to be raising kids that get all happy and excited when you tell them they're going to a museum. Makes me feel like I'm doing something right as a parent.

Random conversations in our home: I come upstairs as Chris is combing Daniel's hair, and overhear

Daniel: I'm tired of all this disrespect. And I'm sorry if I sounded like I was disrespecting you, because that's not what I was doing. I was doing it at Justin, because he's the one giving me all the disrespect. And I'm not going to put up with that any more. I'm going to get some respect.

Chris: So that's why you were growling at him?

Daniel: Yes. And oh, and that's just the beginning!

Didn't hear the rest of it, as I had to creep back down the stairs to hide my giggling fit.


And from Justin: "You're a GOOD Mama! You are the BEST Mama!! Because you give me BATHS!!! I LOVE YOU MAMA!!!!!"
