THIRTY-FIVE

Theo started Pre K this week. 

 2019 week thirty-five

He was so excited and had such a good time. Oops! Matt pointed out that I put his wrong age! It was an early morning. He's only 3.

And I started subbing! This should be the last "first day of school" photo for our family this year. I got right back into subbing with the assignment of a high school Spanish speaking math class. It was more fun than it sounded. 

Loony lu, my softest and sweetest. 

Veronica was doodling while Matt read some bedtime stories. When she was done she handed him a labeled drawing of the globe with a compass. We were blown away. She has certainly learned a lot in the first two weeks of her new school. And she is so happy about what she is learning which is just the best. She will sit in front of our large wall map of the earth and copy parts of it. My little cartographer. 

Matt brought home the most darling Totoro hat for V from a coworker this week. 

Sunday morning grilled breakfast. We lit a fire in the fire pit and put my cast iron pan over a grating and grilled us some sausages and eggs and toast, and some tea for Matthew and myself. Everything got a bit too crispy, but no one cares if the food is a bit charred when theres a nice fire and a cool (ish) morning. 

Happy breakfast. When V saw how we were going to cook the breakfast she was so delighted and yelled, "It's just like ancient times!"

Quotes:

Theodore

Singing to the approximate tune of My Only Sunshine, "You really like me, you really love me, you are proud of me, you want to kiss me, you want me to be a good listener so our family can be happy." I guess he really does get me if he can write this song about me so well. He's been singing a lot lately about how he should act and how much I love him and want him to do right.

"She punched me in the stomach and it feels spicy like spicy food in my stomach."

"Wheat" is how Theo pronounces "weed."
