California Girl

Dorothy raises her hand and Bailey and Car point to her as someone who is leaving the next day.

She walks up to the stage with her two side pigtails. One flower color in each.

"What is your name?"
"Dorothy"
"I love that name."
"How old are you?"
"3 1/2"
"Where do you live?"
"California"

We burst out laughing so hard and couldnt stop. Mike's mom said she actually peed in her pants she laughed so hard.

She then went on to sing the ABCs perfectly and it was a true proud moment. She was a shaking and her heart was beating fast when she sat back down on lap, tears of adrenaline in her eyes. I told her it was just a joke she told about the California. And I am still laughing.

Car Shopping

Car Shopping

We took all of the kids minivan shopping on the day after hilton head - piling them in and out of vans at various car dealers. For some reason part of my test was how well the sales guys could deal with the kids. Toyota rocked it with a great sales man who began by shaking the kids hands. Maybe that's why Sienna seems to be winning out.

We were trying to teach the kids the finer points of negotiation. It didnt work so well when they raved about a car to the dealer but they did find it interesting.
