Do the hula, or something like it...


Today we hit a concert in the park near us, it happened to be Hawaiian music and dancing. I really loved their explanations for the songs and what they sang about. For example, one song was all about seaweed they ate. I didn’t understand the words of course but the dancing was very interesting. I liked the idea of doing a dance for your food. What is your favorite food? How could you show that in a dance? How about something spicy? Something cold? Something comforting? What would you name your dance? Maybe we should all have to dance before a meal, like saying a prayer. I bet it will taste a lot better too. Needless to say, we have been dancing a lot today.

Me: "David, who are you going to put to bed tonight?"

David: "The kittens."

Happy Day

After years of pleading from Perrie, we gave in. Yesterday we got two kittens. We are going to be home most of the summer so this would be a good time as any to get them. After being denied at the cat shelters (for having small children and admiting they would be allowed outside) we found some on craigs list. They are as cute as we could imagine and love people. One will chase you like a puppy if you run and they both want to snuggle to sleep on you. Perrie is in heaven. She was up till 11 pm last night and up at 6am. She likes to wrap them in a blanket and rock them. Owen came up with the name "Mittens" for the black & white one. We are still thinking of a name for the tabby one. I hope I didnt get in over my head here. =)
