Film Friday: Hide’n’Seek

Right now, one of little miss Nora’s favorite games is hide’n’seek.  She would probably play for an hour if she had a willing companion.  She loves running through the house mimicking what we do, shouting, “Ready or not, here I come!” and asking, “Is she in the vacuum? …No,” as she looks for me; her joy at being able to hide from us (as we pretend not to see her) is almost overwhelming.  She makes us laugh, too, because there’s some parts Nora just doesn’t get yet, and it’s rather hilarious.  She loves to hide in the same spot that we just vacated, loves to run into the bathroom (her favorite hiding place) slamming the door and giving herself away, and can’t stop from shouting out her hiding spot as you pretend to look elsewhere.

Oh, Nora staying home with you just gets more fun every day.  I think I might be a little bit heartbroken when you want to play with me anymore.

P.S.
This is pretty much the normal state of my house…half cleaned, laundry waiting to be folded, and toys strewn all about…because I would rather play than clean, always.

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂
