Mediocre updates in reverse chronological order

I took a quick getaway
It snowed
I drew a lion
We had some holidays
The aliens landed at Starry Nights
I let my kids in on a family secret
We watched our dear friend George in concert
We took a short trip to Arkansas where nobody wears masks
We took a short trip to Middle TN and found some fossils
We saw some turtles 🐢
We started kindergarten and first grade
We made cards

It’s been awhile

We are one year into quarantine. Still love each other. Still teaching kindergarten.

Spring fingernails

Occupational hazards

My child was muted this morning by her teacher because I dropped my breakfast in the kitchen and said SHIT. #mediocremom

More chronicles of the foul-mouthed five year old

@&*ing mosquitoes

The 5yo told me today that since she’s no longer four and now she’s five, she doesn’t know how to be or what to do anymore, and can I help her? She is such a deep thinker. She also told us last night “where’s my fucking water” and today let me know that her “fucking mosquito bite itches.” Good thing I’m a linguist and words are just words.
