Zara and her memory!

So we are sitting in the kitchen preparing the broccoli and chard we grew- (she liked the broccoli not the latter) and she picks up these two KLM porcelain airplane trinkets. On flights Matt took overseas they provide these little "bottles" of alcohol - although one of them was empty as he flew out from a dry country.
Zara asks, holding one up,"are these the boobies?" Me,"eeh .. What?" I walk over to examine the "boobies" .
She is pointing at two top windows on the little house. I say "no! Whatever made you ask that?" I am really giving her an odd look!
She says,"cause when I was in pre k, and I took one of these for show&tell, daddy said to you,'thank God she didn't take the one with boobies'"
:-0
How laughable is that!?---- now do I explain that booze is the word daddy had said!?!

Zara Writes...

- or at is least trying hard --
I have been finding little notes around the house with her pictures of her and george - a classmate- with subtitles that say things like,"about to kiss" see below! If she is mad or happy, us parents get a "write up" in her journal! I am on best behavior lest I ended up bad mouthed in that diary of hers ;-)

Tennis & Golf

Recently, zara attended a great birthday party down at the Haine's point historic mini golf course. I biked her down and daddy met us there and played with her and her buddies! Even Carl- jojo 's daddy made it with his crutches and all!
Ps she sunk it! ;-)

Spring has sprung

But mommy is late in reporting it all!
I am the co-coach of zara 's soccer team which sadly she has only attended 2 of the games so far! So much for being coach rock of the janney Rockstars! It s a really cute group and even Finn and Julia from her old BCC pre k class are on the team too.

Happy Mother's Day!

> Zara is like a teenager to wake up. This morning in her groggy state she said "blankie, hold on to me as tight as you can!"
