This afternoon after I picked up Abby from school, I gave her the choice of where we would eat dinner. By Friday I rarely feel like cooking any kind of dinner, so whenever possible, it is our night to eat out. Abby immediately chose Mama Fu's - http://mamafus.com/. It is one of her absolute favorites (and fortunately, mine too). Abby always chooses to eat Mei Mei's (chicken fried rice with carrots) and I usually get Pad Thai with tofu. Abby loves to eat some of mine (especially the "To Food" as she calls it). After we finished dinner and were ready to eat the fortune cookie, Abby proclaimed it as the "cookie with a tag". :-) I love the way a 3 year old mind works!! Perfect way to describe a fortune cookie!

As I type this, Abby is in bed but she is not yet asleep. She is singing "Copacabana". It is pretty funny that she knows almost all the words. She is singing it loud and strong. Barry Manilow would be incredibly proud if only he were here. Perhaps she has a singing career in her future? Can the world use a female Barry Manilow?

Today was a two sticker day. We are working on being a good listener at school and this seems to be the thing that works the best. If she is a good listener for her teachers, they let me know and Abby gets to pick one sticker when we get home. She puts it on after bath time so she can wear it to school to show her teachers. Today Ms. Asiatu and Ms. Cheryl told me she was such a good listener that they recommended two stickers. So my little listener went to bed with a Goofy sticker on each hand. Proud day!

I leave you with a picture of my little Urkel. Most nights when she puts on her pajamas, she pulls the pants as high as they will go and tucks in her shirt. I have no idea what prompted this fashion statement but at least for now, it is limited to bedtime wear. Okay, she has moved from Barry Manilow and is now singing "I Got You Babe". I can think of no better way to end for tonight. :-)
