School Update: Star Of The Week! :> - April 28-May2, 2014

Nui Nui was named 'Star Of The Week' today! One child is chosen every week and it's been a while since Nui Nui has earned the title (or the rotation has landed on her :>). Fun. Love that kind of stuff. She's just growing up so fast and you can tell by how mature she looks :> Must be the haircut.

Funny conversation when we got home from dinner tonight:
Nui Nui: I need help getting The Giving Tree.
Me: No, you can get it, it's in your room.
Nui Nui: I can't. I can't find it. It's too dark.
Me: O, is the light off? O babe, why are you not tall enough to reach the light?
Nui Nui [sighs]: Because I am too little.

#toocute!

There was a cool conversation we had a couple of weeks ago and I meant to record it but didn't have time. Looks like we're entering this fun new phase of cool conversations. Love it :> The conversation took twists and turns but the heart of it was this:

Nui Nui: What does Auntie Anna do?
Me: I don't know. What does Pau Pau do?
Nui Nui [in plain earnest]: She works very hard.

Anyway, here are school pics from this week, ending with our tgif dinner out— we tried a new sushi/ramen place :> What's funny is that, despite being the Star Of The Week, she has been stickered with a scarlet letter on the very day of being named.

Letter to mom: 'Bring in a damn picture of you two already for a secret project we're working on!'

(After working two weeks straight... tgif!)

Gyoza
Salmon, tuna, avocado, 'special topping'...
Bento - beef short ribs, chicken teriyaki
Note to self: Get her some russian dolls :>

Walking Xmas Tree

I like to prance around like a xmas tree, what can I say? :>

'It's Ok...No Problem' :>

It's fascinating/so funny to hear the things Nui Nui says and at the appropriate times, no less! What I hear is actually myself and my mom. 'It's ok', 'no problem', 'no worries'... So funny.

What funny things have you heard lately?

I don't think parents necessarily know some secret language their kids speak by nature— parents just hang around their kids long enough to know everything they know how to say.

What do you think?
