A Teacher's Present

Today we were going out to do some holiday shopping and I had a great/funny conversation with Hayley. It went pretty close to this:

Katie: Hayley, we should get Miss Kristen (her preschool teacher) a present. Do you know what she likes or her favorite color, or what we should get her?

Hayley: Umm..... Maybe a bowling ball.
Katie: (??????) Does she like bowling? That might be a hard gift to get.

Hayley: Maybe hairspray.
Katie: Ummm....I was thinking maybe an ornament and something else.

Hayley: Pajamas!
Katie: Well, I don't know Miss Kristen's size so that might be hard.

A minute goes by...

Hayley: How old is Miss Kristen?
Katie: I think 30.
Hayley: Then let's get her 30!
Katie: 30 what?
Hayley: size 30 pajamas!
Katie: Well, adult sizes are different.
Hayley: But, I am four and wear size 4.
Katie: I know, but when you get older, they have different sizes.
Katie: We will just look around when we get to the store and you can decide there.

I love kid conversations, they crack me up. You will be happy to know we did not get any of those gifts, but she did pick it out all by herself.

Busy, Busy, Busy!

I am totally lacking on posting. If I had taken one picture in the last few weeks I would post it. We are busy from sun up to sun down with getting settled in the new place and totally getting out of the old one. Then there is the holiday business that is on top of moving. So busy sums it all up. We LOVE our new house and feel so blessed to finally have our own home. It is so nice to have some space to spread out in. We are trying to get mostly unpacked and a little decorating done before Christmas. Jeff pulled out our Christmas tree we bought our first year a marriage and the poor thing looks so puny in our front room. So, I am on the hunt for a new tree, and curtains for the back door, and the perfect paint color, and .... the list goes on and on. Only if there were more hours in one day!!!
