Friday's Letters v.10.12

Dear Friday,

Thank goodness you're here! I know this was a short week but somehow short weeks 

always end up seeming longer. I need a weekend.

Dear Preschool Kid's Club Class,

Remember this? And how I didn't want it to happen?

Last Wednesday... yeah. 

One kid pukes, another kid(s) pulls down the sun from a solar system that's hanging from the ceiling and when all of you sit down to colour I realize that I've forgotten the colouring sheet for this lesson. 

So I hurry into the supply room, grab a random colouring page with a rainbow on it, write "Joy" across the top and photocopy it. Only to realize after I've handed them out (crisis averted!) that they need to have the memory verse on them for you to memorize for next week. I then proceed to hand-write the verse on about 18 pages, in blue ink so as to erase any doubt from the parent's minds that I was totally unprepared. 

Thanks. Let's not have a repeat next week, okay?

Dear Kindergarten,

Thank you! Lemon Boy loves you! 

We kept him home on Thursday because he was sick and he cried because he wanted to go to school. 

And as an added bonus, 

he will now actually tolerate wearing a tie 

because the teacher complimented his for picture day. Sweet!

Dear Husband,

I love you. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me. 

I know you've been terribly busy and that's why I haven't said too much but

please.paint.the.house.

In return I promise to finally finish cleaning up and file 

all that pesky paperwork that's been lying around for almost as long as the painting's been waiting.

But seriously 

please, please, please paint the house.

Dear Boys,

What can I say? Grandma found my old clip-on earrings and a random headband. 

You had fun. So did we. 

I know, I should probably start saving for the therapy you're sure to need.

Dear Readers,

Thanks for the sweet emails and comments you've been sending my way.

I love to hear from you!
