Things are sprouting
Here is a picture of Joshua holding the container of seeds he planted in preschool a few weeks ago. He's very excited that something actually grew! He has been watering it faithfully and giving it lots of tlc. Look closely toward the front righthand side to see the shoot.
And even more important (speaking of sprouting) Daniel had his 15-month check-up today and it seems that he has had a growth spurt himself! I am so relieved that he has recovered some of the growth that he lost for some mysterious reason at around 4 months of age. I couldn't even get his pediatrician to worry about it with me, but when it's your baby who plunges from the 50th percentile down to the 3rd for no explainable reason, any other high-strung mother would agree that this is cause for concern! Now he is up around the 25th percentile. Hooray!

Real smocks are really nice, but we wound up just using adult (small) size t-shirts for the daycare. Everyone wanted the green one with a pocket! Smocks with the elastic in the sleeve are the best.
I like smock as an expletive substitute--Charlie just started using "snap", but with smock you can put more emphasis in the word.

We used old t shirts too.
PS- Jimmy says "snap" too, he picked it up at school.
PPS Congratulations to Daniel for his growth!
I think "smock" makes a better swear word because it begins with an 's' and ends with "ck". However, it probably gets more of a reaction from people when you use it as a swear word, too, where snap wouldn't.
