Vacation is going by too fast! Today is Mirielle's birthday, and off she is going to class. I did not buy her a stack of presents or make her a cake, she eats gluten-free, and healthy too. I did give her a birthday card with some money in it and the $20 gift card left from my Christmas gift certificate. She could tell I had planned it well in advance:)
There are lots of kids here in the house, and one nice computer which they all want to play SIMS on. Right now Sonja is having a turn, and Jonathan is waiting. I told him that every time he asks if her time is up, I shall give her five extra minutes, but he doesn't seem to care. I don't even think he really wants a turn, he just seems to want to bug her....and me.
The princesses are playing dolls. Camille gave her doll a nice haircut. Seems she had some little scissors in her little purse. Where was the mom?
I think perhaps I should pack them up and take them for a swim....

Milla loves to cut her dolls' hair too. What in the world is the appeal??? I don't ever remember cutting my dolls' hair when I was a child....but maybe it was a lack of access to scissors - I don't know. I do wish she would not want to take the scissors to their hair every time she is given a pair for doing a craft. She has a ton of beautiful dolls.....with military regulation buzz cuts.
Ha ha! Where was the mom? Probably averting disaster in some other room of the house. There was a internet list or joke or something with a bunch of kids doing horrible things like putting the cat or crayons in the dryer. Back then I only had two kids and thought, "Where was the mom?!" Now I know where she was. Busy with the other hooligans!
