I Want to be President One Day

My daughter was watching Schoolhouse Rock today, one of the episodes about being President, and she announced that she wanted to be President one day.

“That’s a good goal. You’ll have to work really hard then,” I warned her. This pretty much took care of her interest.

“I changed my mind,” she said. “If I was President I wouldn’t get to see my kids except at night. I just want to be a pretty Mommy at home with my kids.”

Here Kitty, Kitty!

My son is going through one of those phases. You know, the sort where it’s hard to get him to eat anything.

Last night was one of the really tough night. He wanted to play ‘kitty’ all through dinner. So we finally gave in and let him eat from a bowl on the floor.

I won’t say it worked perfectly but it did get about half his dinner down him.

My husband and I like to go to Renaissance Faires. The kids enjoy them too, and my favorite joke is about the first time we took our daughter. She knew fairs had rides, so she asked about it. We told her no rides, but there would be knights and princesses. “I want to ride a knight!” was her immediate response (age 3). Told her she’s going to have to wait a lot of years for that one.
