First day of school

Dorothy went to school excitedly, and there were no tears from her nor Mom, nor the teachers, as far as Mom could tell.**

She reviewed the day:**

"We used shovels and buckets, and we played with puzzles and toys."**

"And one kid said, 'No don't sit in my spot!'"**

"What did you do?"**

"I sit in a different spot."**

"One teacher fixed my hair. She got rubber bands. One was stuck. But she didn't get it out."

Drinking hot chocolate**
Mom: That was yummy.**
Dorothy: Yes. Let's have some food to wash it down.

Mom: That was a big ice cream cone for a little girl. How does your stomach feel?**
Dorothy: Much better.

Tips on parenthood**
If your toddler has a fit about getting in the car seat, and you decide to sit in the backseat with her and wait out the tantrum, make sure the doors' child safety locks aren't engaged.

Dorothy, with hair in her eyes: My hair is dripping in my face.

Dorothy: I cut the bottom of my foot outside.**
Brian: Were you wearing shoes?**
Dorothy: No, I was footprint.

Dorothy started crying at the dinner table.**
Mom: What hurts?**
Dorothy: My tongue.**
Mom: Did you stab it with the fork?**
Dorothy: No, I stabbed it with my teeth.

Promos for Beauty and the Beast, including Belle in her ballgown, are omnipresent. We watched the original Disney cartoon movie this week, and in the opening scene, Dorothy asked, "Why is she wearing blue?"

Mom: Did you know that spiders have eight eyes? How many eyes do you have?**
Dorothy: Two. How many eyes do you have?**
Mom: Two.**
Dorothy: How many eyes do monsters have?
