Mouths of Babes...

Michael's kindergarten class is studying what it means to represent something, or be a symbol of something.  Their class talked about how the National Anthem is a song that unites us as a country, they learned that the Statue of Liberty is a symbol of our country.


His assignment, after that, is to make a power point presentation  to tell about some things that represent his family.  (Really? You remember you teach kindergarten, right?  Amazing how much earlier kids are learning things these days!)


While most of his ideas were pretty much what you'd expect, I wanted to share with you the symbol Michael chose to represent our family:

Yes, folks...That's the great symbol of the McAlister family:  a DVD player!

(What?  I didn't say it was a GOOD story...They can't all be funny!)

Happy Superbowl, Everyone!

So I don't really care about football, but any excuse to eat things covered in chocolate is a winner for me!  

So yes, Happy Superbowl, everyone!

Random Wednesday Delight!

Wednesday:  One of the best days of the week

1. My "weekend" from Walmart starts today...which means:
2. I get to wear my favorite pair of pajamas ALL DAY!  (We all know how happy THAT makes me, right?
3. American Idol, followed by Mobbed...!

So obviously some GREAT things to look forward to.  I was sitting at the computer working away at my data entry job, when the doorbell rang.  I was right in the middle of processing an account, and I was getting close to having to leave to pick up Michael from school...I hate leaving them unfinished, so I debated about answering the door.

In the end, I was so glad I did!  Otherwise, I'd have missed signing for the FLOWERS my awesome husband sent me!!  He sent them to thank me and tell me how much he loves me...You know, without words!  :D

Lee, thanks for one more reason to love Wednesday this week!  I love you!
