You've gotta rant somewhere...might as well be in public.

Maggie Wisdom

This afternoon, Maggie and Eli were going with me to the salon.  I was telling them all about it, in hopes that they would be super well behaved.  So, I told them that was going to get my hair colored.  Eli paid no attention to me, and just played with Mouse.  Maggie asked me what color my hair would be.  I told her it would still be brown, but darker.  She said, "Whatever color it is, I'll still love you."  Aww.  I guess love has been on her mind lately, because a couple of times last weekend, I was fussing at Eli, and she wanted to know if I still loved him even though he was being bad.  Of course I do! :)

Maggie also told me that a little girl in her class today said she wasn't Maggie's friend. Here's our conversation:
Me: "I'm sorry about that.  Are you friends now?"
Maggie: "No, but we had to go to the 'peace table.'"
Me: "And what happened?"
Maggie:  "Well, I just let her go on her way, and said we don't have to be friends if she doesn't want to." 
Seems like Maggie handled it well.  I wonder how many more "I'm not your friend" situations we'll have to deal with?  A million?  I guess it will die away by 25?

Also, this evening, we were watching  The Regular Show, at Eli's request, and Rigby the...whatever animal he is, was doing jumping jacks. Maggie said, "Umm, he has a wiener, and when he does jumping jacks without clothes on, everyone can see it."  Interesting.  Don't worry, Rigby has no genitalia. 

Now, Maggie is playing Paper Toss on my phone, Eli is eating crackers, and Gabby is eating the cracker crumbs.  It's gonna be a nice quiet night.
