Second Grade Logic

Straight from the lunchtime discussions:

Student 1: "Santa doesn't exist."
Student 2: "No, God is Santa"
Student 1: "How come?"
Student 2: "Because God gives us gifts, not Santa"
Student 3: "No, my dad and mom give me the gifts!"

Our New House

We signed the papers last week Friday and moved half of our stuff in on Saturday. This coming weekend we'll finish up the move and probably start living there. I had a few of you ask for photos. These are from our inspection and showings so our stuff is not in them, but the photos look way nicer than it does right now. The house is FULL of boxes! :)

Calvin, Calvin, sing we all to thee...

Girls, I have to chuckle and then add a comment to our blog. I totally just made one of those Calvin telethon guys' nights. I always get these calls and think "what's a 526 number?" and answer it thinking it might be a parent from my class and it ends up being Calvin asking for money. Ugh! It's never a convenient time... so last night I got a call and I had noticed, from those knight emails we get, that they're trying to get every student to participate by donating some amount of money (good luck!). We were just heading out the door... so I told them to call me back the next day. Normally I forget and am surprised a second time, but this time I remembered! I even had my debit card ready! The kid was so surprised that he "made a sale"... he was excited! Then after taking my info (and incorrect card number the first time) he asked if there was anything else I would like to know. So I asked about him. (Is that flirting?) He was a senior (hmm, my sister-in-law's a senior), so I asked him what his major was... he is one of those made-up CAS majors :) (hmm, that's SIL's department). So I asked him if he knew her and he did. Oh how fun. Dutch Bingo. he he he. I guess it made my night too. Although I'm a few pennies poorer now...
