Pooh Bear's Tag

Leaving school today Calvin showed me a piece of Pooh Bear's precious tag, now separated from his beloved bear. Just one more piece of this treasure falling apart.

Yikes.

I mourned the loss with him and talked about what we would do when the whole thing was gone.
His response: "We can fix it, Mom. Let's go get a screwdriver and some batteries."

Okay then.

Valentine Rice Krispie Treats

Valentine's Day:

We made heart-shaped rice crispie treats for our friends. When Cal asked if he could have one it took me a minute to figure out what he meant. He asked for a Balance Time Christmas Treat.

Nora's growing up.

Noting his eight month-old sister in a new outfit, Calvin reported, "That girl, Nora, she's really growing up. She can wear jeans now!"
