halfway through december

Pumpkin is now at Calico and I LOVE IT! She hugs the teachers goodbye every evening. She comes home calmer and happier. It's a miracle! I am SO happy we got in there. Lord knows, I should have tried harder to get Bigs in there. Deprtment of DD would have helped me far earlier than me helping us alone.

Bigs had a "Holiday Shop" at school yesterday and he was so thrilled that we had to "gather together in the living room for gift-giving" after we got home. He kept saying how much he loves to give gifts. What a sweetie!! xoxoxo

Pumpkin is totally hooked on the Wii now. Crapola. And her father is UNABLE to teach her good sportsmanship. They go down to the basement to play and they are yelling and cursing and screaming and crying. it's ridiculous. I think I might lose the plug for the Wii or something. One good thing: they leave me a lone for 1-2 hours while they play! :)

Two words: "Amish Mafia". That is all.
