  3. So, how was your day?? Are the kids happy to be back at school? And how is your litle Nipper, still speaking an alien language??
    I hope dad's poor hands are a bit better.

    Jill told her daddy she didn't have to go to school any more because the teacher said she knew everything and needed her own classroom , Jill told him she was going to sleep in tomorrow before she starts working at his office and she wante dher own desk.
    Dad asked Gil was he going to talk with the teacher and he told Dad he was going to send him...

    ReplyDelete
  14. HA!...Jill is one in a million. What a kid. I love her.
    But what the fuck is that teacher thinking. She does need to be spoken to. She may have been joking with Jill but she should have made sure that the poor kid knew it was a joke. You and I know how children take adults literally

    Gil says he is going tomorrow to speak with her , he called this evening to make an appointment .
    He hope she don't tell him about her skipping grades , that shit won't plow .
    He says Jill is not mature enough to skip grades and no one knows if she could keep up and he wants his kids to stay kids .
    Sweetie he's hot ...I'm going with him , he may need someone to ond him out .

    ReplyDelete
  18. That is so cute. You have to get a picture of him holding the book upside down to show him when he is older. Tell him he was so clever he could read upside down and backwards at two.

    Gil told her the teacher was just joking because she studied hard and knew all the answers and had a big sister and brother to help her.
    Gil called Emily and asked her was she the same teacher Jill had in Kindergarden and if so that's where she needs to be returned .

    ReplyDelete
  20. It sounds a bit like the teacher was being sarcastic. If so,she had no right to be.Especially in front of a kid.

    Your babies , they like to read and good at a lot of things.. Jakey writes stories and make videos and Sammy loves Hockey both like karate but who know what they want to do in 10/15 years .
    It comes natural to the twins , J and you are writers ,you a painter and Steve was a hockey player so to me it's not so surprising that they are good at those things.

  35. Shit ! It is cold here. I am feeling it tonight. My uncle says they are still in the deep freeze in England. We seem to go from one extreme to another.

    I read an article yesterday. All the huge kelp beds around Tasmania ( home to thousands of species of marine life) died in a two or three week period.Less than five percent is left and it is dying.
    Scientists found out it was because the water got warmer. Kelp likes the cold water.

    I am so glad we don't have farm animals .

  41. I read about the birds. So far they still don't seem to know what killed those birds.

  42. If you had animals your kids would be getting an early education and they might be experimenting. You don't need that right now.

    I can tell Jill to put Man on the pottie and she will stand behind him to pull his pants down.
    When i would change his diaper she would always run to see his worm and once he peed in her face and she don't look anymore .

    No I don't need that, they will learn soon enough .
    I am dreading when the time comes and I have to tell my girls about the birds and bees .
    When they ask me something I will try to tell them the best I know how for them to understand ...I will tell them the truth...if they are old enough to ask they are old enough to know .

  45. HA! Jill learned the hard way not to get too close to worms.

  47. That Secretariat race horse thing is getting so stale on Craig.

    ReplyDelete
  48. It's almost as annoying as the robot. Why do I still watch this guy. I think Jimmy Kimmel has a better show. Craig manages to get some big name stars though.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Just relax until they ask you. Until then they probably aren't interested.

    I watch Craig for the stars and to here his accent , the other part I tune it out . I think Craig is drinking again.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I wonder if he really is drinking. Would he really do that after writing a book where he says he has sworn off the booze and drugs? He would make himself a liar.
