What Did You Learn Today?

Olivia had a great day at school today, from what we can tell anyway. There was nothing but smiles and waves this morning and she said she is excited to go back tomorrow. The news is that she loved music, doing the ice cube experiment, the cheese pizza she had for lunch, and had fun at recess.

Carina did miss her sister. She did fun things with Grandma all day, but around 2:00 she said, "I want to go get Olivia now."

A couple of Olivia's friends were a bit apprehensive about the whole thing. One of her friends told her dad she was a little nervous, kind of like Nastia (Liukin) before her balance beam routine in the Olympics.....5K seems to be quite the world stage in their minds.

We were getting ready for bed tonight and Olivia said something that made me wonder about just what the topics were today in 5-K. We were on the subject of lives not lasting forever, through talking about the neighbor's dog. Olivia finished our conversation by saying, "Mom, I hope I die before an asteroid hits the Earth." Then she told me that I couldn't tell anyone else she said that - so, shhhhhh....it's our secret.

Here are some pictures from the first day....

One more funny story from Carina today. Quinn had an accident in the living room. Carina walked over to some books and told Grandma she was going to "get the pee book out and see why Quinn was such a bad dog." She flipped though the book and said, "it says that we need to get a girl dog that doesn't have a butt." So, the next time you are choosing a pet, keep that in mind.
