Princess' 6th Birthday!

Cookie had a weekend-long birthday. The 18th was on a Friday, so I went to her school and brought cake for her and her friends. Then on Saturday we had a "anything you want" day at the park (I even made hotdogs). Sunday we celebrated hers and uncle Glenn's birthday at his house. So Cookie got two cakes (both princess cakes, of course), gifts, and lots of love. Oh, I also promised to take her to Chuck & Cheese, and we went a few days after the big day.

p.s. when we were singing happy birthday at her school, her teacher told everyone to say one nice thing about Evelyn. They all yelled "Happy Birthday, Evelyn!" Then when everyone was quiet, this one little guy said "you look nice, Evelyn." HA. I couldn't believe it. Apparently they've been flirting for a while, wth?? I didn't see who it was, but he better watch it.

p.s.s. on Sunday when we cut the cake, guess who got the first piece? ME. =]

Cookie and uncle Kenn. Ain't she the cutest?




At her school

Mana got the first piece of the cake. =]


She Graduated Kindergarten!



Keeping Track

Cookie says the most amazing things sometimes. But I either don’t have the computer with me, or I don’t have the time to blog about it until much later, so I make a note of it on my phone and post it when I have time. That’s why I have random statements throughout the blog; not because I can’t keep track of time, but because I’m a busy law student who tries her best to be a good sister and record Cookie’s moments. Sometimes the dates are all messed up, but it’s ok. The important thing is that they’re here. So here are some of the notes I’ve had for a while:

1. One day the three of us were in the car, and mom and I were discussing whether or not to go eat sushi. Mom said we should probably eat at home and stop spending crazy money with everything, and I (of course) complained. Then from the back seat came this little voice that said “you can use my money, Mana, I have a lot.” Need I mention that my heart melted?

2. However, I have this random note from January 19th that quotes her: “I never bring my money so no one wastes it.” Girl can’t make up her mind. =]

3. Cookie had a booboo the other day, and when I said I didn’t know what it was, she said “then we should call tia Catiussi. She’s a nerd, right?” Well, tia Catiussi’s a NURSE.

 4. I was writing a note to Cookie’s teacher complaining about the lack of instructions on her homework, and asked her what the name of the new teacher was, to which she responded: “His first name is Mr., and his last name is Mac.”

Another!

Here's a picture of Cookie's upper tooth that fell off 2 weeks ago. The 2 that fell before have already grown again.

Not very artistic

Cookie's school had a spell-a-ton last week, and she got all the words right (my genius child). In appreciation for her efforts, I brought her to my house for a girly girl day and painted her nails. She asked me to put little flowers, and since I didn't have any stickers, I had to draw everything with a toothpick and different nail polishes. I'd never done that before, so the final result was... not perfect. When I mentioned that the flowers weren't as pretty as when we got them done at the salon, she said "It's ok mana, you tried your best." =] My princess.

Cupid doesn't know what he's doing

Cookie and I were driving the other day and the song "Cupid" was playing on the radio. She asked me what a cupid was, and after I told her it was a chubby angel with love arrows that made people fall in love, this is what followed:

Her: who do people fall in love with then?
Me: they can fall in love with anyone.
Her: what if they're already in love with someone else?
Me (after a few seconds): well, then it gets complicated.
