like cheers...with milk instead of beer

At about 4AM, A was up and yelling for me. It was either her teeth or the cough she has or the fact that her feet were little icicles...but I brought her into our bed. She tossed and turned for over an hour before going to sleep. While John and I tried to ignore her...neither of us slept until she finally settled. So, when E bounded into our room at 7AM, A was ready to play...John and I not-so-much.

At some point the girls decided to get dressed and I was woken briefly to a pair of My Little Pony panties shoved in my left eye and A saying, "Panties, mama?" Too tired to argue, I told her she could wear them since it was really the school's problem and they had asked to try again. So, after asking her 100 times before we got in the car if she had to go potty (mind you, it's a 2 minute drive to school) and grabbing 4 pairs of extra pants, we went to school.

So...you know how on the show "Cheers", every time Norm would walk in everyone would yell "Norm!" and then Norm would say something really funny back?

Well, when, we walked into A's room at school and all her friends were sitting around eating breakfast. They all turned around and yelled "A!" And, A went sprinting over to the table yelling "I wear panties!" in return.

I wonder which kid is the Cliff Claven of the group?

haha! If A is Norm, then her BFF is Cliff. The real question is who's the hot-to-trot preschooler who's putting the moves on everyone (AKA Sam)?!?
