C'est la vie.
Left for work at 6:10 AM. Got home at 8:45 PM. Looking forward to a 30 hour shift tomorrow. After days like this, I embrace Abraham Lincoln's famous words: "I laugh that I may not weep. That is all, that is all."

A few random Isaacisms
Isaac's first day at school:
*Ring, ring* "Hello."
"Hi, Isaac, this is Mom. How was your first day at school?"
"Oh, it was good!"
"Ya? What was the best part?"
"I got to eat lunch at the cafeteria!"
"That's fun. Did you learn anything in class?"
"Ya! We got to do math for ONE WHOLE HOUR! And then we got to go to RECESS!"
"That's cool. Did you make any new friends?"
"Ya."
"Do you remember any of their names?"
"One was named Isabella, and one was named, oh, I don't remember."
"Well that's fun. Do you think you'll ride the bus tomorrow?"
"Maybe. That would be OK, I guess."
Isaac commenting on our night-time books:
"Mom, I like science books more than story books." Stands up and starts pacing, running his hands through his hair. "Do you know what I think killed the dinosaurs? I think it was a combination of ALL those things. Maybe there was an asteroid, and that killed some of the dinosaurs, and then an ice-age came and . . . " he trails off for the following five minutes, pacing around the room with wide eyes and a focused look on his face.
I've decided he should become a science professor when he grows up.
Isaac's thoughts on peanut butter:
"Mom, I LOVE crunchy peanut butter, because it has peanuts in it. Did you know some people can't eat crunchy peanut butter, because they are allergic to peanuts? Some people can't even eat CREAMY peanut butter because they are allergic to the peanut butter."
And a couple Ashtonism, just for fun:
"Ouch, that wasp just stung me. That kind of hurt." *Pause* "Actually, that REALLY hurt!" Starts running around the playground, crying.
The other night Ashton refused to go to sleep until Aukai turned his pillow over. He has a Scooby-doo pillow that has two sides. The first side has Scooby hiding under his paws. When Aukai turned it over, Scooby had a big smile on his face. Ashton insisted on sleeping on the smiley side.
