So it's been crazy which is why I haven't written..but I just had to share this.
This morning my neighbor has an emergency and asks me to take her son up to school when we go, not a problem since he's in Madi's class. Madi hears this and starts to groan "that kid talks so much! omg!" Is this girl serious?! This coming from a girl who won't shut up sometimes...yet has a speech delay, go figure! So our little friend shows up and we're still getting our coats and shoes on for school so our friend waits for us to get dressed and we're in the mudroom area connected to our garage and the garage door was shut. So the kids are chatting away. They talk about how they have a garage too and Madi tells him that the other night we were watching Dancing with the Stars and the results of the election and "mommy doesn't want, um...what's his name mommy?"
"who madi?"
"you know that man you don't like when we were watching Dancing with the Stars?"
"Barney Frank"
"yeah Barney Frank! cuz now my mommy will get fired!"
I laughed and said "No, mommy won't get fired, but it's not as good for mommy's work"
"Yeah! We don't like him!"
And she tells all this to the poor kid she complains talks too much and who probably didn't care what is good for Madi's mommy's job!
So we finally finished, coats, hats, gloves, shoes and the garage door opens so we can walk to school.
Well, the minute the door opens we see Lou.
Tyler to our friend "do you know Lou?! He's annoying right?"
Madi to our friend at the same time "we don't like Lou!"
Our friend...well let's just say the poor thing's head was spinning I think.
Kids can be so cruel, it's awful. But then again there are kids who are annoying and deserves it...
So just in case Lou didn't hear what they said really loud about him, they chased him up the street saying they won't play with him anymore. Thank god Halloween is over I really don't want our house egged!

Hi "crazed mutha", love the name.
ReplyDeleteMy name is Rebecca, I am a communications intern at "e" inc. I love the blog and because you are situated so close to Boston and are a mother, I thought you would be interested in this press release.
Families Free all Saturdays in November
“e” inc.’s “The Learning Room” open free to families
Boston, MASS – “e” inc.’s executive director, Dr. Ricky S. Stern, announced today that their new hands-on science exhibit space, “The Learning Room,” will open its doors for FREE to the public on Saturdays for the entire month of November.
“This is an exciting time for us at “e” inc., the room is ready to go, and so are we,” said Dr. Stern.
The Learning Room is a storefront museum on animals, habitats, and sustainability with fun and hands-on activities everywhere. Used last summer by 20 different summer camps as a field trip site the “e” inc. staff watched and tinkered to really see what the kids loved, and what needed more.
“It was an amazing and creative time,” said Ms. Kimberly Guerra, “e” inc. Teen Coordinator. “The exhibit spaces are created from recycled materials and we had a ball making everything come together. The children who visited loved all the different activities. Also, the staff who came judged our ideas a huge success.”
Children can come to this unique spot and learn about the earth while engaging with all sorts of ideas and materials.
The Learning Room is located in the warehouse district at Fort Point Channel. The address is: 337 Summer Street in Boston.
The room will be open all 4 Saturdays in November from 11 to 4 and admission will be FREE for adults with elementary and middle school-age children. The storefront is easily accessible by MBTA (Red Line: South Station) and is a 5-minute walk (2 blocks) from South Station toward the Convention Center.
Schools and after school classes are welcome for a small fee, by reserving a daytime appointment slot in advance. For information, or to make a reservation, call: Ms. Alex Smith at 617-227-1522.
