C and E didn't have school on Friday. He was at a friend's house, so she and I made shrinky dink charms. Well, she did. I just helped.

Prince Conor and Princess Ellie just finished a two week fairy tale unit. Ellie still likes to hear about princesses, even though she "just doesn't like to dress up like them anymore". We could lend any of our fairy tale books to the class, so we sent in 6 or so, including The Paper Bag Princess. Their teacher read that one to the class, which Ellie thought was great, especially since the note inside is addressed to "Princess Ellie." (Thanks, Mary-Claire)!

The Running Game, as I understand it, is played like this. Player One sits on Conor's bed. Player Two jumps onto the bed, and then Player One tells Player Two what (s)he liked about said player's jump. Then you switch places.

I think if you hit the wall, you're disqualified. We don't play the Running Game anymore.

Tonight was the last night of swimming lessons for this term. Both C and E passed Level 1, which they are excited about. (I think you just have to get in the water to pass, but i won't tell them that). Ellie will miss it, Conor is thrilled to be done. We got our season pass to the pool today, so it's good they both passed!
