Kid quotes

Patches friend on the way to preschool: “My Mom called me awesome possum, but I’m not really a possum, but I am a awesome.”

Gleek singing the Star Spangled Banner “Jose can you see!”

Howard snuggling the blanket wrapped bundles of children after family prayer “You’re a snuggy huggy buggy ruggy!”

Sandra observing the giggling and tickling after Howard’s declaration “looks more like wiggle piggle tickle giggle to me.”

Gleek talking about her friend whose Grandpa just died “But it’s okay, she can just hug on my Grandpa.”

It’s tomorrow, and Kiki likes me again

A good night’s sleep does much to settle emotional turmoil. This morning Kiki is completely on board with not giving up. She expressed complete understanding of why I’m requiring it. Apparently last night she was refusing to admit out loud I was right even though she could totally see that I was. There will probably still be moaning and groaning about German study, but I think the major battle is over.
