1. Windex kills ants INSTANTLY. It's actually kind of fun to watch when they are trying to invade your kitchen.
2. Signing Jenna up for swimming lessons only results in her sitting on the steps for two full sessions, that would be 16 weeks, of lessons. Putting up the 8 foot pool in the backyard results in her doing all the things her swimming teacher tried to get her to do--with no fear. Sheesh!
3. Actually trying to stick to a budget is really, really hard.
4. Abby likes to play with the camera (when she can reach it) and likes to play hide and seek with the memory card. This particulaly made me furious in the five minutes before preschool graduation when I realized we had no camera.
5. There are some crazy, way too academic preschools around here. I checked into a few and the local Montessori school expected Jenna to be able to read. She's 4. They also said that at their school, by the end of Kindergarten, kids are able to identify parts of speech. What? That sounds a little developmentally off to me!!
