When I picked Katie up today, her teacher walked her out. Katie had both knees covered in band-aids. The teacher said that Katie was running outside on the play ground and fell. She then leaned into Katie and said, "Remember the rule, no running on the play ground." I then smiled and said thank you for taking care of Katie's knees and walked Katie to the van. I told Katie that she had to follow the school rules and that I was sorry that she had hurt her knees. But you know, deep down I want to say, JUST WHERE SHOULD SHE RUN? So Katie, when you are old enough to read this just know that I am on your side. I can't tell you this now because you would go break the rule again. I really believe that this is the dumbest rule ever. You should be able to run outside on the play ground and act the fool. If you fall and get hurt, well, it was just part of learning. So for now, I am pretending to be on Ms. Bobbie's side. But in my heart, I'm pulling for Katie.
Sometimes my kids can say the funnest words. This morning it was so foggy outside that it was difficult to see. Katie says, "I can't believe how froggy it is this morning." Cole agreed that it was very froggy. Katie sometimes says allergy for alert when playing battle with her brother. Cole says that he takes durteck (Zurteck) for allergies. They were singing, "The weather outside is nightfull, the sun is so delightful, since we have no place to go, Let it snow." Well, at least they say I love you just right.
