She's not four and a half and three quarters forever anymore.

no more is she 4 and a half and three quarters forever


She's 5.
I can't believe we all survived.
She has a pretty grueling schedule for the next few days; parties, dentist, circus, etc. If you call to wish her a happy birthday, call tonight between 7-7:30 (to try to keep her schedule) and don't worry if you call sometime during the weekend. Sunday evening she may not be home.

Today, I spent the morning with her doing science experiments with her and her friends and teachers (whatever they're paid, it's not enough) at school (we made slime). All had a blast. Pics and movies will be distributed later.

Congrats to you and Trish. I've told you before, and I know you believe me - it only gets better.

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you - I really do need to take you up on your baking lesson offer. I'm such a baking wuss. boog an I were at Panera yesterday for lunch after his haircut (his turn to choose the lunch location - he had the grilled chicken caesar), both of love fresh bread, and I know the stuff coming out of one's own oven has to be even better.
I'll be in touch!

Hey Lorence,

Thanks. It definitely does get better. So far seems 3 and a half to 4 was the magic turning point.

Re: bread. No sweat. You're a parent, these things can easily get pushed off for a few days, few months, whatever. I do mean it however, some Saturday or Sunday morning-afternoon, the whole bunch of us can make a tasty baguette. But don't sweat about trying to hurry.

Did the Wiseman remember her birthday this year?? You never know about him; he's very tricky.

You know, the Wiseman was the only one to have predicted the birth of Frankie? He is wise indeed. If I had a picture of him at 5 years old, I would've posted that.

Many Happy Returns!

You know, if you blink, they grow two inches.

She went bowling today for phase 2 of the bday extravaganza.

If they bowl a ball, blink, spin around, go get some pizza, go potty, the ball may have traveled almost to the pins.
