How Sweet, I Think.

 In French today Catherine had to draw some pictures to accompany a bit of text. One of the pictures was, "mon ami." She covered up her work so I couldn't see and then, once it was finiahed,  revealed it with a big smile.



Click on it to see it better. You'll notice that under, "mon ami," is a picture of me. Awww. I was touched. But look at it closer.

See the computer? The coffee? The school work? Me balanced between the two with a crazed look on my face and pointing furiously at the school work?

So I'm some crazy woman living in the triangle of computer-coffee-homeschooling? Ouch.

Aww! I think you look happy in the picture. Or maybe you have just had too much coffee!

Maybe if you spent fewer hours on the computer you'd have time to deal with your obvious rodent problem.

How could I when Mimi has become such a part of the family? Besides, last time I dealt with the problem Catherine was traumatized. See that first picture? That was the mouse I threw the toaster at just before impact. Catherine has never forgotten how he looked as he realized death was imminent. :(

Ah, those moments when we catch a glimpse of ourselves through the eyes of others.

Actually, I think you have rather a happy smiley look on your face.

But this post reminded me that I'm on the computer waaaaay too often. Dang.
