TGIF!!

(This was written a few weeks ago while Daniel was away in California, but for some reason I didn't post it.)

This week Frodo and I had lots of alone time. I could tell him I loved him as many times as I wanted without Daniel getting jealous. Hehehe.

Here is a funny anecdote about one of my kiddos at school:

Today during one of my first grade classes one of my students started screaming bloody murder after his front tooth fell out and started spewing blood onto the desk. "I can't go to the clinic, don't make me go to the clinic." He firmly attached his arms to my hips and did not let go until I had told him about twelve times that I would not be sending him to the clinic.

"I think I'm going to puke," said one kid with a penchant for melodrama, looking down at the blood on his folder.

After the tooth stopped bleeding he calmed down significantly. "Ohhhhhh," he said as he sighed a breath of relief. " I can just tell my dad I was eating a cookie and my tooth fell out."

I'm not sure what terrified him so much. The blood, the thought of getting sent home to his dad, or the clinic. Oh well. The beauty of children is that they generally recover quickly.

Going to take dogs out now. Daniel gets back tonight.
