the Earth according to Michael

I'm not sure what the obsession was with New York??? Africa is included because one of his classmates recently moved there and his class had been talking about it a lot.

should I take him to the dentist?


Oma put the silly teeth in Michael's Easter Basket. He got the biggest kick out of wearing them.

something for the bunny

We went on a train ride, hunted easter eggs, hay ride, and saw the bunny. After the hay ride everyone was getting back on the train. My sweet, sweet Michael says "Can I give the Easter Bunny a piece of candy?" He goes over and gives him a tootsie roll out of his basket.

Michael said it was because he was so nice to put out all those eggs for everyone to hunt.!!

He can be so sweet and thoughtful

I need a sign

It was late the missus had put Michael to bed and told him only get up if you need to potty. Sitting in the living room we hear a crash. I get up and head to his room to find him standing next to his bed with a book in hand laying on the bed.

Now I'm am glad he likes books and enjoys being read to, but it is late.

I say: "What are you doing?"
Sprog: "I am picking up the book. It just fell of the shelf"
Me: "Oh did it now and I guess it just jumped right into your bed too."
Sprog: "Dad you know what I need, I need a sign on my door that says 'No Dad Allowed' so you stay out of my room"

Ooops I couldn't keep a straight face...wonder why.

Kindergarten

So, at breakfast Michael and I are talking and we get on the subject of him turning 5 and going into Kindergarten and he says:

When I'm 5 and I'm in Kindergarten I'll wipe my own butt because they don't do that for you when you're in Kindergarten.


...............it's nice to know that he paid attention to something that we said (we are trying to get him to wipe his own butt and make the potty in general a more private thing.....ugh)

blvd

On the way to school today, Michael read the street sign and new that the abbreviation blvd. means boulevard. His knowledge is simply amazing. He also asked what the numbers meant on the street sign. He's so inquisitive!
