Well she did it!! Finally no more training wheels.
She got the courage to finally take them off. Considering that we had been raising them slightly over the past few months without her knowing, I would say it is about time!

Traffic report
Today's traffic report on the radio on the way to school:
"There is a rooster interfering with traffic on Rip Rap Road".
My daughter's response:
"Wonder what the chickens think about that.."
no kidding... :-)

Questions/comments I have heard in the last year.
I need to put pickles on my eyes cause the’re swollen..
I wish I could hug you for 12 hours.
Oh my goodness..that fart shattered my butt.
The looker back thingy (rear view mirror)
The music scared a sneeze out of me.
I want heaven to be in dirt, cause at the grave they bury you in dirt.
Can you put garlic powder on your butt like baby powder?
Do birds have necks?
Does a duck weigh more than a violin?
When was the first war?
Has Santa ever been sick in flight?
Why do boys call girls chicks?
Plain eggs are my passion.
This banana makes my tummy feel warm and cozy.
Man’s best friend in this house is the stove.
Did the radio go blind?
I didn’t know that people who were 55 could still run.
I wonder if there are restrooms in heaven.
Look at that..her booby crack is showing!

Ants
Okay...I love spring...but had HATE ANTS!!! and I really HATE ANTS in the kitchen. We have had the occasional ant around the house (mostly the office) in the past. No big deal.
This morning....M and E leave for work/school. I turn off the kitchen and dining room lights and head off into the office. Check work. Finish my cup of coffee and decide to go back to the kitchen to get a refill and maybe get some toast for breakfast. What happens...
I turn on the light and suddenly ALL OVER THE COUNTER are these little black ANTS. I see them marching in a trail from behind the upper cabinet, down behind the microwave and next to the toaster. So I start smashing the damn things. Yank the microwave out...smash...smash...smash the little devils. Check the loaf of bread and muffins that were on the counter. Luckily they had not found those items yet. I triple check and then stick them in the fridge. Throw the toaster out into the garage.
After I stem the marching flow I then walk outside to see where the hell they are getting in. I see the place and grab the can of Raid from the garage and spray the hell out of them. The whole side of the house is dripping in Raid.. Take that you critters.
So then I go back into the kitchen...get out the bleach and start washing EVERYTHING. Now the kitchen walls, floor, counters, cabinets, and microwave have been cleaned. I have spent the last 4 hours cleaning every square inch of my kitchen and dining room. There is not a crumb to be found for those damn ANTS.
Still have not eaten as I have lost any desire to eat...GRRRR...DAMN ANTS!!

Eight
Eight years ago, at this time, I was being "prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion" for the arrival of my baby!
Em is
Imaginative
Girlie
Humorous
Treasured
I love this child more than life itself.
