Ah....Friday!

After 4 days of bad reports from preschool, Penelope came home with a paper that said "Penny did a great job today!" Woo hoo! A couple days ago I decided to reward her if she did well at school. I bought an Easter basket, plastic eggs and little toys from the $1 bin at Target. If she does well at school she gets to pick an easter egg out of the basket. Yesterday her report said she listened to her teachers, but was not nice to her friends. We let her get an egg for listening, but told her she had to be nice and listen today. I guess it worked!

Tonight at dinner (baked chicken, baked fries and mixed veggies) she picked out all the lima beans, put them into a pile and ate all of them. Then asked for more, even with french fries sitting on her plate! I'm so happy we found another veggie besides peas that she'll eat. So her favorite veggies are lima beans and peas and mine is brussell sprouts. We are a kooky bunch here at the Strand house!

But not too kooky...we are off to try the ice cream place, Flapdoodles!
