Rawr!

This morning Henry was complaining that he felt sick and didn't want to go to school. I pretty much saw right through it (I'm that good...). Eventually, he fessed up that he has a math test tomorrow, and he is worried because he has never had a test before. I almost melted because it was so sweet. We assured him that there was nothing to worry about, that he would do fine, he knows his math stuff, that we are proud of him, and that no matter what, we would love him. That seemed to make him feel better because skipped off to school without missing a beat.

I think I finally got Ceci to agree to being something other than a horse for Halloween. Due to her recent obsession with "The Land Before Time," she would like t0 be a dinosaur. Oh, but not just any dinosaur. She wants to be a T-Rex, "like Chomper but a growm up one." Which means if I just show her any old dinosaur costume, she pretty much vetoes it because it is not lavender/ purple, like Chomper. I have yet to locate a purple t-rex costume (that's not Barney...). Anybody have one they can lend me?

And Malcolm... let's just say, if anyone should be the T-Rex, it is him.
