i don't know about you guys but we had a quiet weekend, haven't had many of those lately : ) danielle noticed too - her comment when we went to town to bring matthieu to sunday school this morning was "we're staying home for two days?!" that brought on the twenty other questions that always follow whenever danielle asks about anything: "how come dad's not working today", "how come you're not working today", "how come we're not going to diane's", "how come it's sunday", "it's not sunday", "all the other kids are at diane's how come we're not"... whew! those were easy enough to get through! sometimes she has me stumped - you know, about the things that don't always have an explanation because that is just the way it's understood to be - it's usually the science questions, like why is ice slippery? once in a while, she lets me get away with "i don't know, we'll have to ask dad, maybe he knows"... life from the perspective of a four-year-old...
danielle is so bummed that she doesn't have school this week. she only goes to school readiness on thursdays but there is no school here on thursday or friday. she wishes she could go to school every day so she is really bummed that she has to wait two weeks this time! she LOVES riding the bus to school in the morning, matthieu brings her to her classroom. it's so awesome having an older brother! i imagine he'll be off the hook for chantale, danielle will probably take over for him since she'll be in 1st grade when chantale starts school readiness and matthieu will be in 7th grade AAGH!!! i'm not ready for that!
i need to go have some chocolate now : )
