Beauty AND Brains

Yesterday Jess was using the step stool to gain perspective, and came across a balloon on top of the fridge. We decided to share it. She wanted to write 'Jessica and Emily' on it and then draw some smiling faces. This morning she came in with the balloon and told me, "Mom, you know what would be funny? If this balloon had brains! HAHAHAHAHAAAaaaaaahhhhhh...Lets draw some brains on it." I did, lots of them! I showed them to her. She thought they were great. Then she told me, in reference to the 2 smiling faces on the balloon, " Now put some lip stick on them!"

Happy Birthday from Pollyanna

Happy Schmappy Birthday to me!

So, I know this is late, not that anyone is surprised...but I wanted to say thanks to the girls for the fun birthday lunch. ( I wrote proper Thank You notes and delivered about half of them so far..duh.) And then to make it even sweeter, Pollyanna (who has entirely admirable talents) made me a fantastic fondant mad hatter birthday cake! She made the fondant out of marshmallow so it tasted as wonderful as it looked! I took pictures of the art.

Jess and Wes on the first day of Kindergarten

Jess and Wes on the first day of Kindergarten
Jess woke up on this particular morning in rare form. She usually doesn't care what she's wearing; her birthday suit is just as good as anything else. On this day inparticular, she informed me that she didn't want any bows or bands and that she had her clothes picked out. Was that Kindergarten or 8th grade?
