Changes

The kid's world is changing. She starts a new daycare next week as well as beginning school. While all this is a good thing, it is still an upheaval for her. This week we are getting back to proper bedtimes, talking about her new school, and generally building up some excitement. 

Meanwhile, on her final Monday at her current daycare, one of the boys managed to smack her in the nose playing Foozeball. It looks like she will have a black eye or two. When I told her this she first asked me what a black eye was. Once she understood she shared this update with everyone. She is terribly excited to possibly have two black eyes. 

Oh to be that young again.

QCX

On Friday the kid went to the QCX, the local exhibition/fair. All morning she had a mantra, "I'M GOING TO THE EXHIBITION!!!!"

Although I am not sure a mantra should be yelled at the top of your lungs. 

She had an AWESOME time. Her favourite ride was the merry go round. She claims to have ridden it six or more times. Jim says he thinks it was three. 


I am not using the photo of the horrified horse. This one seems much happier. The kid loves her some horses. 

On a strangely sad note, there were no pony rides this year, and no petting zoo. I wonder why. Oh well, the kid enjoyed her time there. That is what matters.
