It gets crazy right? I have four kids, each one tends to run through a room and leave on a light no matter how often I tell them to shut them off. With that being stated we are constantly having to replace lightbulbs faster than most.

I wasn't really sure about this movie when I first started hearing about it because I hadn't watched any of the previews and just kept hearing the kids talking. Now it only sounded like something really cheesy to me and it hadn't been made into a cartoon so didn't sound like anything exciting.

Have you ever done that? Of course I'm the type of person that can't even deal with watching a Visine commercial due to having sensitive eyes. So imagine me trying to wash it out with the stuff, I can't allow anything near my eyes, I don't even put mascara on because of it.

BalletGirl has been asking for a while to get her hair cut and every time we settle down to do it something comes up. Well, yesterday I told her I was going to chop her hair if she didn't get it out of her eyes. She replied, "Really? You'll cut my hair if I leave it like this and then I can get bangs?" This told me there was no hope, the girl obviously wanted them badly.
