My homework for tonight. Must be done by the time Zach wakes up in the morning so he can grade it.
The word of the day is pizza. I had to trace it, write it correctly three times, draw a picture and use the word in a sentence. Then I had to cut out the mixed up letters and glue them in the spaces provided. Last was a series of math problems testing my adding and subtracting arithmetic skills.
Zach wrote a tough story problem too:
"Jina (Gina) has 18 lights her brother has 7 lights how miny (many) more dose (does) her Brother need to have 18 lights?"

Thanksgiving 2010
What we're thankful for this year:
And my favorite picture of the day:
2008: We are thankful for...
- Thankful for Poosers and Sows, termites, bugs and the internet.
- I am thankful for family, friends, and togetherness at Thanksgiving.
- Facial hair because I know how much the women in my life love it.
- I'm thankful for birds and bees and cottonwood trees and all of you and even me!
- I am thankful for my family, birds, and good food to eat, bees and cottonwood trees. (Later this same person thought of a few more things): I am thankful for Indiana Jones, Skelly and Bones (the last two are characters from the Lego movie The Adventures of Clutch Powers).
- I am thankful for my wonderful family.
- Mothers and sisters, blue skies and sunshine.
- I am thankful for little (and big) boys that make me laugh, a garage door that works, and Twitter and Facebook.
- I'm thankful for family, friends, Legos, schools, shelter and cousins.
- I am thankful for (1) wisdom of Agnes, (2) focus of Adam, (3) imagination of Zach, (4) love from Pam.

The Art Room
Remember this post? The Office, Kindergarten style.
Now that Zach is in first grade, it looks like he has decided to pursue other interests. This was on his door today.
(In case you can't read it: Zach's art room open Friday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. Come in this Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday, for free!!!! In the morning, afternoon or in the night)
If he partnered with Adam, I bet they could run a pretty good little business. Adam is the numbers guy, Zach is the creative one.
Oh second thought, maybe that's not such a good idea. Would they be able to get anything done with all the fighting and competition?

Motherhood: What would you say?
Reflections of Motherhood
If you have trouble viewing the video, click here to view it on YouTube.
Here's what I would say:
"He won't sleep in your bed forever."
"Take lots of pictures."
"Sometimes a cookie makes everything better."
"Who cares what the book says?"
So...what would you say?

Favorite Books
Besides this book, these books are the ones I see the boys reading. They are the blog books I print every year from blog2print.com. They'll read funny excerpts, and ask me to read from them too. These two posts seem to be the favorites: Why I do not go inside Starbucks and Not exactly a pottery barn Christmas.
And why wouldn't them like to read these books? They're all about them. It's like they are reading their own autobiography...at least since 2007.
