Wordless Wednesday: First Day of School

The first day of school was last week. It has defiantly been really busy and kind of  very crazy. My son was super excited. He is in first grade and has always loved school. My daughter wanted nothing to do with it. She is in kindergarten. Here is a picture of the first day.

Quotes

I love quotes. When I feel sad or upset, I always seem to reach for a quote or a song to make myself feel better or to put my mindset back where it needs to be. I asked people on Facebook what their favorite quotes were. Here are the responses:

“Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. Christopher Robin to Pooh”

~A.A. Milne

What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family."
~Mother Teresa

“I love you also means I love you more than anyone loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that no one loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that I love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else.”

~Jonathan Safran Foer

"If you live your life afraid to die, your afraid to live"

 ‎"What goes around, comes around".

Attitudes are contagious, is yours worth catching?

"It's fun to do the impossible"
~Walt Disney

Bullying

My six year old boy is in first grade. He is already being bullied pretty harshly in school. I knew at some point that I would have to deal with this issue, but i didn't realize it would happen so young. I am asking for some feedback. Has your kid been bullied in school? What age did the bullying start? What did you do about the bullying?

What Did I Just Say

We all know kids say the funniest things. I could make a post everyday on things my kids say. I knew before having kids that this would be one of the cute things I could enjoy. What I didn't know before having kids was some of the things I would say out loud! Had someone told me the things I would say, I wouldn't have believed them. As a parent it's everyday life. But if you were hanging around I'm sure you'd get a laugh at it. Here is a few things I've said aloud in the last week.

1.Use your words- I heard this by other parents before I had kids didn't get it. Soooo get it now. I say it to often.
2.Please don't put makeup on your brother or the dog.
3.No you can't marry your aunt-My 5yr old was talking about marriage and asking questions about it. I told him when he gets way older he will marry someone that he loves. He has a favorite aunt. Told him it's a different kind of love.
4.Please don't put underwear on your head.
5.I'm sorry you can't grow peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches - We have planted a few flowers and my kids were asking what else they could grow. My 5yr old and 4yr old insist on planting a peanut butter and jelly sandwich so it can grow.
6.Farting on people is not funny.
7.Get the Lego's out of the speakers.
8.No you can not dip your chicken in chocolate.
9.If you keep putting things in your nose, its going to get stuck.

Now that your done laughing at me. What are some funny things you've said lately?
