'Out Of Gas'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
On the other hand, I cried for months, going to kindergarten, and settled as soon as my mother (who was a sahm, then) left. When my father (who worked outside the home) took me, I didn't cry.
This is why I started taking O to DC part time now. I want him to socialize and be ready for me to drop him off before we start preschool and kindergarten. Plus, it gives me some more time with Liv so she gets a little undivided attention.
Has the daycare provider told you she settles in quickly once you're gone?
Yeah, she'll probably call me in about 20 minutes, after drop off finishes up, to let me know she's cheerfully eating her French freedom toast dipped in egg with syrup and playing just fine.
Cash, when billytea is here (August 31), can you bring the Os down to go to the zoo with us?
I wish I could go somewhere to play all day where people made me French toast and let me nap.
Okay, if you come down when billytea is here, I'll make you french toast and let you nap!
OH! We had billytea over last night! Em said "Poncy bugger" for him and yelled at the dog.

Ayup. Are you going in the morning on Thursday? We can definitely make that.

SWEEET! Owen loves the zoo.
That's sounds just right, Aimee. I'd say she's doing really well. She's just feeling the change. Life is full of changes, and we don't always like them, or even if we do, we don't always like them right off the bat. Crying is one of her only ways of casting her vote, and since she's happy at the end of the day, it doesn't sound to me like she's voting, "This place sucks," so much as she's voting, "WTF. Don't I get any say, here? Respect my author-tay!!! Oh! Dollies!"

I really think this is a good move, all around, Cashmere. I tried to get a niece and later a cousin's daughter to come over and be a mother's helper (for pay), but it ended up being like having another kid of my own, I think because of the family connection. My kids all started pre-school when they were three years old, though, and I know they needed it. My boys needed it more than Julia, because they're just less social and far more change averse.

WOOT!!! We can go whenever is good for you and the Os!!!
