a geek and a monologue


Genesis' class had a skit at school and she was a "geek". She was the only one that took the extra effort to get a "costume" and she was so proud of herself. I was proud of her too. First, for having the guts to act the geek part at the risk of "not being cool" and second, for going the extra mile and putting thought into her part. She was excited and wanted to take a picture. I think she did good!

The kids were assigned chores while I ran an errand and Brooklyn apparently got ahold of the camera and decided to video her thoughts on the subject. It is rather humorous, if you can understand what she says. Maybe it's just humorous to me, but I thought I'd share.

Ok, Matt informed me that it's not funny. So apparently I'm the only one that thinks so. The highlights of the "monologue" are when Brooklyn says "....now on to my mom's (laundry). I don't know why I have to do it, I mean, she can do her own laundry, can't she?" Also, when she says, "I'm almost done (with chores) so I'm not crying". And at the end, she says, "Bye, fans!" She is a character!

Did you know that Simeon hates toothpaste? He can't even stand the smell. We were reading books and Glory sat down with a toothbrush in her mouth and he told her to go away because he didn't like the smell.

Did you know that Matt has worked hard and lost almost 50 pounds?!? Yay Matt! We are proud of you and you look GOOD!

Did you know I'm having a really hard time keeping up with housework? I'm too busy!

Did you know Brooklyn did a really good job on writing a paper for school?

Did you know Genesis is not even 12 and already looks like a teenager? (with the attitude to match!)
