Should I be worried?

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Everyone is in an absolute PANIC over the Swine Flu.  TRUE STORY: Sandy’s sister visited Cancun recently.  She returned with a gift shop T-shirt for my daughter.  Yesterday, she decided she wanted to wear it to school.  I get a call from the school about an hour after I dropped her off letting me know she threw up in class.  So there’s the visual.  A kid wearing a Cancun Mexico t-shirt, puking in a room full of kids!

She’s fine by the way, and no, she DOESN’T have Swine Flu.  That being said, I think I’ll keep her away from any petting zoos for a while.

I brought my 4 year old into work with me today since she didn’t have school.  As she usually does, she started to draw pictures.  I HAD to share this one with you…

Wanna take a stab at what it is?  Anyone?

In her words, “That’s just the money you could be saving with Geico.”

Just got this message from my 4 year old today…

Not only that, but this morning all of her friends were playing “Ring Around The Rosey.”  When they invited her to join in, my big girl declined, looking at them as if to say, “Yeah, right.  Like I’m gonna play that baby s#*t with you.”

I’m so proud.  Other parents? Stay down.

leverich_28.JPGReally quick.  We can’t decide on a name for #2.  Every name I throw out gets shot down.  I’m putting my foot down with my final name suggestion.

Genetalia

Feminine, and Italian.  Genny for short.  What’s not to love?

Sandy disagrees.

That’s where you come in.  If I can get 50 comments in support of my suggestion, I may be able to sway her opinion.  Let’s make it happen, people!
