Fall poems

I printed these signs for the cars (for Jon) and a couple printed on two pieces of paper. Mary Jane came up to me and showed me how she decorated it. She said the words say: The leaves are falling down. I play in them. I jump in them.

Alert


Jon finished driving school today and passed the test for his Permit. Mike took him out for the first time this afternoon. Jon said that he was surprised that when he would stop pressing the gas the car would still go. He said in video games stopping the gas was effectively pushing the brake. Now is the time for persons in this family *ahem Jon* to stop teasing me about my stick shift paranoia. It's not as easy as he thought it would be.

Mike on vacation

Driving down Crestline Ave.
He sticks his head out the window to see how cold it is on his face to ride his bike.
He decides to buy a facemask that he can wear with his helmet.

Plungers around the house

In a house with so many people a plunger is essential to find, and often, especially with little ones who put toilet paper in the toilet just for fun.
In the upstairs hallway by the vacuum- this is right next to where Adam sleeps- that is a little suspect.
This toilet plunger is so effective to make me laugh so hard to go pee- ahh good? What an affective tool- to bad it was marketed as a something to unclog the pipes. Hmmmm?

Kelly turns 10

Double digits! The big 10 and Kelly reached it today at 12:07 pm. She was very excited to get her birthday cereal- Marshmallow Mateys- that she does not have to share.
