Mommy took Selah June to school today to give Daddy some more time at work before he had to leave for “Doughnuts with Daddy.” We spent our time snuggling and breaking into a set of flower gel decals we got as a surprise in the mountains.  She was really into it, and I hated having to interrupt our fun to take her to school.

She woke up wanting to play her toy trumpet, and she wouldn’t leave it at home.  It had to go to school with us. (And I wasn’t sure how I would protect all the little kids from SJ’s wheezy cold.) We later found out that the music teacher was thrilled to hear that Selah June had insisted on bringing her trumpet.

On the way we talked about our plan to go to Satie’s house for the afternoon.

Jessica picked her up and took her home for a snack and a nap.  And she slept really hard.  It’s definitely been a recovery day.  She returned to the decals and pretty quickly ripped one in half.  That made her mad, and she wanted me to fix it.  I explained that we couldn’t put it back together, but we could put both pieces on the window to look like it was not torn. She seemed okay with that option.  (Crisis averted.)

Over dinner, Jeremy and I started talking about the news, and all of a sudden we noticed that every mention of “Trump” was followed by “trumpet? trumpet? trumpet??”  So cute….Much cuter than Trump.

We moved into the living room after dinner and found Cars on tv. Of course we had to watch.  Jeremy looked over and asked SJ, “Are you picking your nose?”  And sincerely she replied “yes.”
