Friday and Saturday, May 3 & 4, 2013

Highlights from the last two days:

Miss Megan's and Baby Henry. Emperor's New Groove. Playing outside.

Watched a video about firefighters, fire trucks, and fire safety. Three times.

I read her a book on firefighters.

Book about castles.

Sesame Street DVD.

Talking' 'bout Brave, Brave, Brave, Cars, Cars, Cars.

Norman took her out this afternoon. His version of events:

"It was free comic book day, so we went to the local comic shop. She picked out several free comics (Superman, Batman, Spongebob Squarepants) and got a couple free sketches from local artists. She told them about how much she liked comics, and Charlie Brown, and how she was going to grow up and draw in a comic book shop, too.

At Touch A Truck she got a coupon (which I subsequently lost) for a free ice cream cone, so the next stop was Braums. She really liked the cone.

Last stop was May Fair. She and I looked at a number of artists' booths, then decided to go through a "bouncing castle" as she called it, which was basically an inflatable obstacle course with a big slide at the end. She was scared of the air-pump noise at first, and then scared to try climbing the wall to the top of the slide, but eventually she made it through and down the slide. She immediately wanted to do it again!"

Then I had the great pleasure of reading her one of the free comic books.  And by "great pleasure", I mean, the plot and dialogue were ridiculously horrible, but I got to do voices.
