Quote of the day
So we were watching The Sound of Music tonight. During the beginning of the movie, when they showed the nuns, Namine said this gem: What are those women mad about?

Questions and answers
Namine asks her share of questions over and over again, and to my shame, I’ve answered with my share of “stop asking!” or “because I said so.” I try not to, though, because I feel that she deserves more than that.

Namine’s quote of the day
Namine was banging two toy eggs together in lieu of musical instruments this morning. I asked her why, because she has a box full of musical instruments in her room. And the box is on the bottom shelf of her toybox rack, so I knew she could reach it. I’m using eggs because my tambourine…

Last night, Jessica was so tired from the crazy day that she crashed in bed right after dinner. So by the time Namine was getting ready for bed, she was fast asleep.

A good day
Jessica went over to her sister’s today to lend a hand with Christmas presents. (I plan on waiting until the last minute, especially since Jessica already “accidentally” found one of the presents from me and Namine).
