★ Checkpointing on the Kids

A few entertaining truisms about my children:

Kaileigh, now 6 and a kindergartener:

  • Has decided that when she grows up she wants to be a doctor (but not the kind that gives shots), a cheerleader, a teacher and a rock star. Not or, but and.
  • Continues to detest socks, and may actually make it through her entire youth without wearing them
  • Is incredibly helpful with her younger brother
  • Is reading and remembering books at an alarming rate
  • Is steadily advancing toward earning a gerbil. Or was it hamster? I can’t remember.

Brogan, now 2 and in daycare three times a week for a couple of hours:

  • Is addicted to motorcycles and plays with a toy motorcycle during most waking moments
  • Is convinced that he is a puppy, and crawls around the house panting with tongue out
  • Still has crazy hair, also with Dad’s odd swirls on the top back
  • Is addicted to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, which we watch On-Demand over and over and over again
  • Thinks that belts are always necessary, and helps Dad wear one always
  • Loves to make people laugh

Pics coming soon…
