Each year for Valentine's Day the PTA hosts a Valentine's Tea for all of the grades. The kids wear best dress to school and use their best manners eating punch and cookies, followed by a partners dance that they learned in P.E. It is high stress around here for a few days leading up to the tea with all the worry of "what boy will they make me dance with?". It's a fun tradition! Paige's tea was the day before since they start the kindergarteners off easy, so I didn't get her picture, but she had a great time too!
What a neat tradition! Cooper would die, but my girls would love it. Coop has his first school dance coming up. Yikes! Nicole looks at least 16. That HAIR! Wow! Corinne will win the men over with those eyes someday. Are we really not that far away from all of this????
Here is a link to our Caring Bridge Blog that journals the story of our miracle boy and his new heart.

Out of the Mouths of Babes
Matt to kids: "I'm just being facetious." Corinne: "What's facetious?" Matt: "It means sarcastic." Corinne:"Well then just say 'sarcastic'! Why make it complicated? I mean, that's like, why would you say Czechoslovakia when you could just say Kentucky?!" (7/14/12)
Claire: "Grandpa, I want milk." Grandpa: "How do you spell milk?" Claire: Looks at grandpa for a minute and then says, "You tip it!". I'm sure she was wondering why he wanted to know how you "spill" milk. (7/8/12)
"Mom, when I yawn my eyes get sad." Claire, age 3 (3/14/12)
Paige: "Guess what happened at lunch today?!" Corinne: "Lady Gaga came?" Paige: "No. Better! My chocolate milk tasted like pink milk!!" (3/13/12)
"If we had to leave our house and could only bring 4 things I would bring: food, water, a guy who makes electric things work, and the wii." --Paige, age 8 (3/9/12)
"I really wish I had a different mom. One that's nice." ---Claire, age 3 (9/18/11) OUCH!!
5 y/o friend: "My brother's friend is scared of trees and branches." Spencer: "That's crazy!" Friend: "He thinks there's scary stuff in them." Spencer: "Like what?" Friend: "Porcupines" Spencer: "And mini-dragons?" Friend: "Yeah." (9/13/11)
