My Friend the Munster

Last night Jozie was bothering Dan about getting her something to eat (anybody who has spent time in my house notices that my daughter eats every 15 minutes all day long... seriously). Well as Dan got up off the couch, Jozie literally right behind him, he farted. I started laughing. Jozie asked why I was laughing, I told her because Dad farted on her. She was mad that I made a mistake in what I said. She corrected me in a rather stern voice, "He did not fart ON me, he just farted in my face". Needless to say, I stood corrected and died laughing.

Jozie came up and asked me what a Gross Bird was. I wasn't sure if it was some kind of joke or something... I just answered by saying "umm... a bird that's gross?" She said, "no daddy says I fall down because I'm having a gross bird". Dan started laughing. "I said Growth Spurt, not Gross Bird". After laughing, I explained what a growth spurt was. I didn't have the heart to tell her that she's also just clumsy like me and her dad.

Jo and I were driving to the mall today and there were two men on motorcycles next to us at the stop light. I noticed that Jozie had stopped talking and when I looked back she was waving and giggling at these two guys! They weren't even looking at her. I asked her "are you waving to those two guys?" and she answered "Yes, I like their motorcycles and helmets. They have skulls on them!" Awww great.... Finally they turned around and noticed her and smiled and waved. She then was all caught up in seeing where they went after the light turned green. They had left us in the dust of course. When did she start liking boys? I need to make sure the girls club is still alive and well!

Jo got her report card and she seems to be doing well. She mainly got satisfactory and a few excellents. There are some stuff she has to work on, like knowing our address, phone number, and 911. Some other things, I think have to do more with her being really quiet in class. Like one of the things she has to work on is class participation. She is so quiet in class. Little by little she is coming out of her shell, but she is so scared of getting pennies taken away and not getting to go in the treasure box that she doesn't want to ever be loud in class. Good for the teacher, but then it just seems that she is extra introverted. Oh well... it will all work out in the end.

Last night there was a trailer for the Chimpunks movie (the Squeakwal) and the little chipettes were singing "Single Ladies". Jo decided to make up her own version:

Jozie was playing "cook" with my grandma, mom and I. We all had to take turns "making" food for each other. Jozie finally told my mom that she would have to be the waiter. My mom didn't seem excited about serving everybody else until Jozie said "Grandma you be the waiter. You sit down and wait over there and I will get you food." Yep, the waiter just waits to be served :-)
