Recent Discoveries

1. Abby is not real.
After each school day, I like to ask Brooklyn who she played with on the playground. Sometimes she says Rylee, but usually she says Abby. While waiting for class to end one day I noticed a bulletin board with the kids' names written on bees. I noticed the Rylee bee, but there wasn't an Abby bee. I asked the teacher if those were all the students in the class (thinking maybe some had started late). Those were in fact all of the students. I also saw an Anna bee. After class I said, "Brooklyn, did you play with Anna today?" Her response, "No, I played with Abby."
There is no Abby.
Strange.

2. There seems to be a cut on my lingual frenum. I'm not sure how it got there and it's really painful. It couldn't be from talking too much, right?

3. I can remember very specific conversations I had with my best friend in the 8th grade. I remember where we were and what music we were listening to, but I can't remember what's on my grocery list, where I put down my stinking cup of coffee, or what Nate and I even talked about yesterday.

4. Watching "Hoarders" really motivates Nate to clean the garage and attic. It's our new favorite show. I love it (the show and Nate cleaning).

5. I keep getting the ever so slightest tummy ache every time I think about leaving my kids for a whole week.

  4. Haha this cracks me up that Brooklyn had an imaginary friend! Ask her to describe "Abby" for you. And as far as the whole Nate "cleaning" business I don't believe it I want a picture!

  6. Does Brooklyn go on M/W to Punkin Seed? I know there is an Abby in my cousins class. She's 4 though... maybe she sees her somehow?

  7. I grew-up in a house that could have been on hoarders. Eww

    Are you sure that they don't play with another class of kids, or that there isn't a teacher assistant that comes in for like 2 hours ?

    I mean it isn't that big of a deal and super cute, but just wondering.
