Quote of the Day

Yesterday and today Mike has school workshops all day so I have been taking care of the kids. Whenever I am alone with them all for an entire day I do my very best to get out of the house. It really helps to break up the day.

This morning I suggested that we get a yummy Dunkin Donuts breakfast and head to the park for a breakfast picnic and play before it got too hot.

On our way there I was telling the girls that I don't want them to go back to school because I will miss them during the day. I was asking them who was going to keep me company while they were in school. Kate of course said, "Well, you'll have Owen and then we'll be home in the afternoon." But Savannah had the quote of the day. She said, "You can stay with Owen and all our stuffed animals! Except not Elmo because he's mean!" I laughed and asked why she thought Elmo was mean. She said, "Well, he pooped on me last night while I was sleeping." Thanks Savannah - good tip! Gotta love that imagination :)

I love this picture of Owen. I gave up trying to fit in all the appointments into my calendar and gave it to him. He looks like he's thoughtfully contemplating my schedule this month! :) Thanks Owey :)
