I really don't know what to say about this one. I rarely go in the kids' bathroom, but yesterday I did, and this is what I found...
Day 26...
.... part of me wants to know what's going on... but another part of me thinks that it's better off that I'm not involved. Apparently the toothpaste collection is Clara's and Alex is NOT to use ANY of them... but why in the world does Clara have three things of toothpaste? And why can't Alex use them? Hmmmmm......
Yesterday was a really good day. Last night after Clara's dance class we went out to eat with her friend and her mom. Three years ago, every Wednesday night (or at least every other one), the kids and I would go to this neighborhood diner for dinner after Clara's dance class. Clara's friend and her family would do the same. However, we didn't know each other at the time. Several different groups rented space where the girls danced... and although they danced in the same building at the same time, they were not with the same group. By the end of that school year, the diner had stopped being open for dinner and we all had to find a new routine. The next school year, Clara and her friend started dancing together and we figured out that we all used to have the same Wednesday night routine and wished that it still worked out. Fast forward to Saturday, when I get an excited text from the mom... the diner is now open for dinner again! We decided to go for it this Wednesday and all had dinner together. It's nothing fancy.... but it's one of those family owned neighborhood places where they treat you like you're part of the family. It was so nice to be back!
While we were there, Jeff was off to his new activity! He just joined the neighborhood men's basketball league that meets at Clara's school! It's a low pressure league so it can work with his random work/travel schedule (that's has always been what has stopped him from joining a league). He really enjoyed himself, but came home exhausted. He's looking forward to making this a regular thing.
Clara is hilarious....
