A Day of Firsts

We've had a full day already and it's only noon on Monday. Each child in my house has had a "first" today, one good, the others not so good.

• Lauren got reprimanded by her gymnastics teacher this morning for spitting. The spitting is not the first. The reprimand by a teacher is. Her and a little neighbor boy who is in her class were being silly and she started spitting. On the one hand, she is three, she is going to be silly. On the other, bigger, more important hand, spitting is not okay, especially when we are neck deep in germ season.
• Joshua has his first ear infection. BUMMER! He had a high fever at daycare last week, but didn't have it again. He started holding his ear this past weekend, poor guy!
• Logan discovered his hands!!! He is staring at them and trying to grab things!! It's so fun to watch his eyes get really big as he learns about himself and the world around him!!

So, there you have our Monday morning in a nutshell! Hopefully by the end of the day we'll have more positive than negative.....isn't that really the goal everyday?
