The sun is out, the grass is green, the wind is cold and it feels like a proper Wisconsin spring again.
I want this dress for summertime. The fact that it's the "Gidget Dress" makes me want it more.
Mad Men is back and Peggy is still my favorite character. Joan's evolution as a mother surprises me. I knew they'd jump ahead in time with the first episode of the season, so much about the show's writing is satisfying. And Megan? Could grow on me...
Mr. B has a stye in his eye, poor boy. But his dad brought him shopping for a new baseball glove and bought him all kinds of other things to spoil him--new shirts, cleats, a Gatorade. It's a special thing to be spoiled for no particular reason.
Mr. G had playdates galore this weekend. He has also cleverly hidden his school pants in an act of protest. If he has nothing to wear, then he can return to Happyland Elementary or be home schooled, right? Right.
Mr. T has struck an ingenious deal with us. He's grounded from his i-device (for grades), but we want him to play CYO softball (for his social development--it's a 6-week season and he can play the sport as well as anyone else on the team). He'll play softball if he can have his i-device one day out of each week. Our boy can be so smart when motivated...
At Sunday school Mr. T's class discussed sibling rivalry. Awesome topic. On the drive home I asked him about it and it was gratifying to hear Team Testosterone agree that sibling rivalry isn't something they struggle with. I also think they do incredibly well on this count, but to hear it from their own lips was nice.
Spill it, reader. Is sibling rivalry an issue in your house?
