  1. Those are all wonderful answers but.... No! This degenerate tooth fairy keeps forgetting!! And so she brings nothing. And when she finally remembers she puts a quarter and an apology note at the kid's place at the table.
  2. I really really want to go back to bed and read a book. And sip some tea. But that's not going to happen.😩😩
  3. Freesias are very pretty! I need to plant some more. And feverfew makes a great filler in bouquets.
  4. My baby just lost her first tooth at the breakfast table. She found out it was loose a couple days ago. Now the Tooth Fairy is going to have to make an appearance. Our Tooth Fairy is a degenerate.
  5. Junie, you have been quite productive this morning. You get a gold star! Angi gets a bib!!😜 JJM gets....uh.... something for upcoming waterfall photos.🎷. A saxophone. How about a saxophone? AMJ gets a new pillow!!
  6. Ok, so I found some freesias blooming in the corner of the yard and picked them and put them in a pretty vase with some feverfew. It's very pretty, but it's driving my allergies crazy. Freesias are strong.
  7. I use it for math for all of my kids and it's going really well. My two oldest had been doing TT and just really were floundering. Especially in the area of fractions. I think CLE teaches fractions, especially factoring and all that really well. I am sold on their Phonics program. I went through 3 different phonics programs with my middle DD in kinder and nothing worked. Finally, in first grade we tried CLE, since it is designed for first graders and she learned to read quickly and is an avid reader now a year later. I like the LA a lot, too. One thing I really like is that the kids can do it mostly independently. It is straightforward and easy to understand.
  8. We didn't get any hail because hail canons. The hail will damage crops, but we don't get Texas sized hail. We get pea sized hail. Honestly, any kind of weather here besides "sunny and warm" gets everyone in a tizzy. But hail will ruin fruit. I used to pack fruit and I remember growing a ton away due to hail damage. It's horrible.
  9. Good Morning!! COFFEE!!☕ï¸â˜•ï¸â˜•ï¸
  10. We don't have good window sills for growing things. But I can buy it in the grocery store.
  11. We live where there are a lot of stone fruit and hail damages it. So, a hail canon creates sound waves that break up the hail in the clouds. Some people don't believe they work, but we haven't had hail any time they turn the canons on. They make loud booms.
  12. ((Ikslo)). That really sucks! It's raining. The hail canons have been going off for a hour. I gotta make dinner.😡
  13. Pass the popcorn!!ðŸ†ðŸ†ðŸŒµ (I don't have a popcorn emoji, so I went for eggplant and cactus)
  14. I have very tiny caterpillars in a cup on my kitchen countertop. We don't do this every year, more like every other year or so, because they are kind of expensive, but they are fun! Also, we are taking a butterfly class with our homeschool group.
  15. We paid $3600 for DS's last fall.
  16. especially when there is a sunny spot on the patio.
  17. Fun! I love impromptu field trips. Especially since I am not much of an impromptu person. I would like to be, though.
  18. I want to grow cilantro at the same time I grow tomatoes. So I can make pico de gallo. But cilantro doesn't grow here in the summer. Parsley seems a bit more hardy toward the heat and if I wack it back it'll last till the freeze.
  19. My second son thinks he's a lap dog, and he's gotten quite heavy.
  20. "There are three kinds of lies: lies, d--- lies and statistics". (Benjamin Disraeli)
  21. Let's all just stage a protest and go back to bed. I hate being up any time before say... 7:30am.
  22. Good Morning!! COFFEE!!☕ï¸â˜•ï¸â˜•ï¸â˜•ï¸â˜•ï¸â˜•ï¸
