Because I think we all need some levity around here, and just because I feel like sharing (and also, in this is probably only cute cause it's my kid but I have to report it anyway news: Ellie has named her pacifier. Its name is Bobby.
By the way, I know I know, she's almost 21 months and really shouldn't have a paci anymore but sue me, she only gets it in her crib and in the car. That's the rule.
Sunday I drove Erin's car to music class because Ellie's car seat was still in the backseat. Ellie is so accustomed to getting her pacifier in the car that as we drove away, immediate cries of "Bobby! Bobby!" were heard from the back.
It took me a few seconds to figure out who/what she was talking about.
Now we all know who Bobby is.
Four children (Down syndrome, twins, we've got it ALL!): Teens, tweens and littlish big kids. Forced to lower our standards a little more every day.

What I'm Thinking About Today
-I am in constant fear that I am wearing two shoes of different colors (i.e. one brown, one black. It’s been done before and I got all the way to work before I realized my mistake.) It happened this morning where I had a panic at the bus stop but luckily once again I was safe (two black shoes). It is bound to happen again though.
-I am confused by how it’s possible to mix-up Leo’s backpack with another child’s since his is MONOGRAMMED with his NAME on it. And yes, I’m shouting. This happened yesterday. One of the bus ladies gave Leo's bag to another family. Also wondering why this other family didn't um, say anything? It wouldn't have been that big of a deal except that Leo had medicine in his bag that he needed last night.
-I’m annoyed that Leo’s school needs a note from is doctor just for them to administer eye drops. I get that they have “procedures” but we’re talking about eye drops here, folks. And I gave them a note in writing. The doctor has more clout than the parent? Guess so.
-Hoping that Leo’s teacher/one of the class aides made sure his face was clean and snot free for the school pictures today. Wishing he didn’t have a military buzz cut for said photo but oh well.
-I’m worried Ellie might have croup. Or at least is on her way to another cold. She was up in the middle of the night with a barky cough last night. I guess we’re due. It’s been what, two weeks since she’s stayed home from daycare?
-When I picked Ellie up at daycare yesterday she had her paci, even though I have asked them not to give it to her unless she’s napping. They said she was fussy and that she seemed comforted by it. I wonder how often she is fussy and wonder also if I’m deluding myself into thinking she is happy being in daycare. Not that there is much I can do about this. Sigh.
-Speaking of, I am a sigher. I have really become one. My mom used to sigh a lot and it drove me crazy for some reason. I’m not sure why. Now I totally get why she did it.
-Not believing that I’m about to turn 36.
