E and A made Turkey hats at school with all the things they’re thankful for on the feathers. E told me “I ran out of feathers and didn’t get to put A.” Then turned to A and said “Don’t worry A, I’m still thankful for you even though you didn’t get a feather.”

They actually ask a different question every day and one recent one was, "If you were an animal, what habitat would you live in?" C said, "A castle." She is pretty determined to be fabulous.

My SIL tried to explain thanksgiving to their 2.5yo and asked him what he’s thankful for. He said “Buzz Lightyear...what are you going to be, Mama?” 🤣

M is pretty funny lately.
She was using a tape measure to measure one of her stuffed animals earlier and she announced "Mom, I measured my octopus and it's 22 years old!"

Nugget was being Impatient so I said “Hold your horses” and her response was “mom, I am NOT a horse! Do I even look like a horse? No.”

Last night M and I had a lengthly argument over the time- it was 8:30 but "there is no 30 on my clock mom- thirty is 3-0 and it's not there!" We never resolved it.
Today there was a dead fly on the steps and I told her I was going to vacuum anyway so to leave it there and I'd get it and she stomp marched up the steps and got a piece of toilet paper from the bathroom and said "I'm gonna get that little fly and tell him what for" 🤣🤣 and then proceeded to pick it up and drop it into the toilet. I was crying from laughter.

C has started asking me for hot sauce at meals and it's kind of hilarious. I put a couple of drops on his plate and he'll dip his finger in it and lick it and say "picy!" and then asks for more he is definitely his father's child

E used to be obsessed with dipping everything in salsa. Until we had one bad experience at a Mexican restaurant where she got a mouthful of habanero pepper. Oh she screamed and cried. Never ate salsa again.

Ps written conference today literally said that “she participates happily in clean up time and is a big help!”
At which BM and I laughed out loud and then wondered why we are such terrible parents. (It wasn’t the only “our kid?” line)

J was telling me he was sad that Trump lost the election (um, how are you my kid???) and when I asked him why he liked him he said it was because his face was the same color as cheetos. I've never said that in front of him, he came up with it all on his own

From the strings household
BM is going to take guitar lessons and she's ambidextrous so was having trouble figuring out what to do. She's on the phone with a rental person and just said "I can go both ways pretty easily" and I spit out my coffee.
P was asking about the symbol that is a mystery...the, um, the mystery mark! (you mean the question mark?) nope. mystery mark. I kind of like it.
She also called hershey kisses horseshoe kisses which is great.
M just had an activity on new years resolutions and they are both talking about their new years revolutions, thanks hamilton!
