Best Part of the Day-
Went to Cuz Cale's 9th B-day party this eve (how can he be this old?!) and the kids had great fun. It was good see and be seen, for sure.
Worst Part of the Day-
Scarlet has an issue with one of Cale's friends who she says called her "stupid" once and isn't nice to her and uses "bad language". I know and really like this kid's mom so we were chatting at the party. The mom asked Scarlet innocently, "Why don't you go find (her son) Finn and Cale?" Scarlet replied with a furrowed brow, "I don't like Finn! He's mean and uses bad words!" I had to take Miss S. away and explain that we don't say (especially to a child's own mother!!!) that we don't like someone...I gave a few rote responses: we don't see eye to eye, I need to watch Liam, or simply o.k, I will try, etc. Eeegads.
Unexpected Liam Comment:
On the way to L's preschool this morn, he was fussin' in the car so I was using my old stand by distraction technique of "hey, look at that ____, Liam!" to have him forget all of his worries. This time I pointed to a very large truck and gave it my all: "Look at that huge truck, Liam!" Liam replied clear as a bell, "That truck is enormous, Mom."
Happy B-day Caley!!
