Note to self
1. Note to self: When driving through a car wash with curious 4 year old in the back seat, lock the automatic windows. Just saying.
2. Note to self: Remember this moment because of its sweetness and humor. DearSon has discovered the Wii Lego Star Wars games and is learning characters and settings. Currently we have Dark Vader (no, not Darth, Dark), White Vader (Count Dooku), Yoga, Bubba Fett (presumably Boba Fett's country cousin), Sees3pOhs, Empurwere and of course, "Why is Princess Leia naked, Mommy?" And as an animated lego person, she does look naked in that Episode 6 bikini thing. Naked and weirdly angular.
3. Note to self: Why do I get all the hard questions from the kids? Driving home from my DS house in Ohio, I fielded about 824 questions from the kids in the back of the van. I don't mind answering questions though this was a particularly tough bunch including "Why don't people take care of the earth?" (Remember "I don't know." is not an accepted answer.) "How does Santa know what we want for Christmas." "Who will get to play the Wii first when we get home?" (There's one fraught with a lot of whining potential depending on the answer) and of course, "How do people die?" (Yikes!) Those and many others were the questions directed at me. Specifically me. I know this because every questions started, "Mommy, why/how/when .....". After sometime my DH decided to field a few questions so he asked that the next question be directed to him. You want to know what question he got? Ready? DearSon asked "Is turkey made from turkey?" Answer: Yes
4. Nothing makes a bus stop happier than the first snow of the season.
Other notable happenings
5. DD#1 has begun her own yarn stash. She's following in her mom's footsteps. <sniff>
She won the drawing for the box of Queensland yarn from the Yarn Boutique during Rochester's first Yarn Crawl. There was one ball of yarn made from wool and milk proteins. Appropriately named, Leche, it is heavy for its size and very slippery -- interesting.
6. DD#1 needed a new hat.
Pattern: Who? by Sara Amoroso. DD#1 wanted eyes on just a couple of the owls -- side and back.
Yarn: Arucania Nature Wool in purple
Mods: Well, given the size of heads in this family, yes, I had to make it one owl repeat larger so the owl portion was worked on 121 stitches.
Next up lots of knitting....
