Never Thought I'd Hear This...

At lunch today Carie said to Abby...

"Please remove your fork from your panties."

Though I do have to say that mealtimes are improving. They have been improving, but finally I think I'm able to look back and recognize that improvement. I guess if you just keep doing it over and over and over again (I'm talking about years :)), they'll eventually get it.

We also just picked up a new cool book (at the school book fair) called "How Do Dinosaurs Eat Their Food?" by Jane Yolen. Don't know WHY we didn't think of getting a book on this topic sooner, but we didn't. I'm told it is pretty good and kids this age love the "How Do Dinosaurs... " books. Looks like there are several titles. I've not yet had a chance to read it with the girls', but I bet I will soon.

I LOVE those books!! Clean their room, say good night, get well soon, etc. They are AWESOME!
Love the line about the fork and the panties. And I can just see Carie being completely casual about it... like it's an everyday request (which is probably is for you!)
