THE KIDS.

Well, today was Luke's first day of school.. SECOND GRADE!!! I picked him up early this afternoon for his 7 yr checkup. When he saw me in the hall, he ran toward me yelling... "MOM!!! They do hot lunches here EVERY DAY!!! Can I buy my lunch tomorrow!!!??????" Priceless... I now know EXACTLY what is important to 7 yr olds. We got flu shots at the doc and were told that he eats... a lot... and needs to cut back.... same thing I've been told at every checkup since he was 2 weeks old. Super exciting.

As for Victoria, Eric said he was listening to talk radio this morning. The radio host said something like this, "As for Obama's new healthcare plan, he couldn't even pick up a turd from the clean end" and Victoria yells out, "Dad.. He just said TURD!!" all the while giggling. Then at dinner tonight (at Maggiano's of course) she tells me the story of how on the radio she heard a guy talking about "picking up turd". What is NOT to love about life with children? Wouldn't change it for the world!!!!
