Ready for round 3..

Conversation I had with Jilly-bean last night while cooking dinner.
"Mom, I am a far"
"Yes, Jillian, you are a star"
In Jill's class, they use symbols and their name for marking their cubicle, cubby, desk and personal articles. It makes for easy identification. The teacher gave Jill a star so she could practice her "S" sound, we are still having some difficulty with the pronunciation.
The conversation continued..
"Mom, could I have a $ucker(we have some left from the Thanksgiving parade)?"
"No, not right now, we are going to have dinner soon"
"Why Mom, I want a $ucker(I'm shaking my head no), hmm, Mom your a real finker!!"
Jillian leaves the room angry, I'm doubled over laughing!!

Yes, we are ready for round 3, hope the speech therapist meets with us soon!!
Can't wait until our "S"' is no longer an "F"....

Dare not go there..

I have told myself that I would dare not to go there, politics and religion would not be discussed on my blog, well ,a woman can change her mind.
Look at the above picture, our Prime Minister. Newly elected, Progressive Conservative minority government, can you say Deja vu, yeesh....
In the Presidential debate last evening there was mention of "Joe the plumber" 25 times, maybe he should be a candidate...

The above was not meant to offend, please don't send me mean old mail, wink...

Happy Thanksgiving..

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!

It is a very busy weekend in our little town, we have a fair, parade and of course it's Thanksgiving!!
Jennifer was in the parade today, she was on the sparks float, the theme was taking the harvest to the table. Jen kept calling herself Top Sirloin, LOL, I just may not ever be able to eat beef again, LOL.

Until next Spring...

Goodbye until next Spring, the cottage is almost ready for closing, Superman and friends will go up once more and then it will be closed up until the Spring.
The closing always reminds me that cold days are ahead and so is the white stuff(did I really just type that, LOL).

I'm not bitter.....
