Happy, happy, happy

Emy was so excited to be home and see her stuffed animals and babies. When I showed her baby, she couldn't stop laughing & hugging her. Then, input her in bed and she said hi to all her dolls, "hi giraffe, hi baby. Elmo - hi Elmo. Hi baby" and then she put them all in a pile, laid on them and said, "happy, happy, happy!". Love that baby!!

Packer interview

We had our family interview at packer which went great. Hayden did an excellent job w/ his interview portion (questions/puzzles basic math) & I think chris& I did well. We are now worrying we'll get in !! Super expensive but we think worth it for hayden who needs smaller class size

Emerson & i played w/ stickers for a while after dinner. "a sticka" she calls it.

Birthday realization

I just turned 37 & time seems to be slipping quickly by me. Hayden, my baby is nearly 5 & Emerson is a gregarious 1.5yr old. I'd like to document one thing about them or our lives, daily.

Today Hayden took a test for the private school application process he cried the entire way there (this whiney cry that I have to admit makes me nuts) and then admitted he was scared. Really who can blame him as we are asking him to sit in a room of strangers and answer questions for an hour. I worry he bombed it. It's not that Hayden isn't intelligent, but expressing himself & using his words is not his strong suit

Emy was a riot all day. Was non-stop talking & playing & making us play Maroon5's moves like Jagger a hundred times
