My Girls are Great

A few more party pics.
Peter and I just returned from cocktails at Joey’s. I had a stiff lemonaid and it made me cold so I jumped in the bath as soon as I got home.
Pip went to bed at 6:30 tonight. She was pooped. We tried out the preschool (for next year). We were both impressed. Pip danced and shook a rice container during music time–so cute! She hopped up and down excitedly. One little boy asked her how old she was and she said in the cutest, seriously questioning voice, “I don’t know?” Even though she really does! I guess it was new student nerves. Anyway, it is just down the street. She will start two mornings a week in the fall. And I actually think that the teacher’s husband may just be the nicest neighbor ever. I think he might be the guy who took my Christmas tree away and refused to accept any money. Her son, Drew, is in Mistaya’s class and Mist says he is a really nice kid.
The little Tabs is determined that she will become a scientist who discovers the cure for cancer. She said to me the other day, “I’m tired of all the hub-bub about finding a cure for cancer. That’s all everyone talks about but no one ever has. I’m going to do it! I hope no one beats me to it. It’s a lot of years until I’m an adult”–that’s my girl. I believe her. She is one determined girl. And hub-bub really were her true words. And in a similar vein, Mistaya is probably going to be put into grade eight math this term. She finds grade 7 math too easy and boring.
Peter is in Vancouver tomorrow. Tabs has piano and I want to start spin class Thursday evenings. It is at 5 though, not the best time. Also I have to take Mist to the dentist at 8:30 AM–he volcano tooth (the one that occasionally erupts blood from out of a hole in the top) chipped and digs into her gum.
Pip goes to daycare–but how to get her there for 9 when I will be down the mountain taking Mist to the dentist and then to school. Peter says he’s leaving no later than 7:45 for work. Rukin-shmukin, sometimes is seems stupidly complicated and impossible. I was going to read for my class during the time Pip’s at Linda’s. Will call Linda in the AM.
