Mr. Turkey


A little ditty that Joelle learned at school:)

Misc.

So it has been a while since my last post.... Not too much is happening right now, but here are a few funny tidbits:
Joelle has a the puzzle mats for her room and she has figured out how to make a cube out of them.  She likes to make the cube and put a toy in it and tell you she has a present for you.  The other day she was crying in the living room and when I asked her what was wrong she said, "I can't make a present for you mom."  She was having trouble getting the cube together and was so distraught that she couldn't give me a present:) 
We were leaving to go to Megan's soccer game and Joelle picked a pair of shoes that were a size too small.  She told me they were tight and we took them off and off we went.  About 5 minutes later in the car she told me she wanted to give her shoes to Makenna.  She said they were too small for her, but they would fit Makenna. 
Megan scored her first goal of the soccer season today!  And then she scored her second.  It was a great day for her.
Joelle has learned the meaning of the word mean.  Of course, everything I do that she doesn't like is now mean.  When she is getting scolded for not listening she will tell me to stop being mean to her.  How oh how can you reason with a 3 year old that you're not being mean, just expecting her to listen?
For everything that Joelle does that makes me cringe, she does 10 that make my heart swell with love and adoration.
