Stinky's Epitaph

A raccoon tore up patches of our front lawn (again!), and Tracy was livid. Tracy told Aerin that she (Tracy) saw that raccoon's tombstone in her mind's eye. Aerin added, "And the tombstone says 'Here lies Stinky the Raccoon, after he was foolish enough to tear up the Marr's yard'."

Math

Aerin wears 3W shoes, and Mom wears 9W.  She said, "Mom has 6 more wides than me."

Green Paste?

Yesterday afternoon we had a potluck in our backyard. One of the families brought California Rolls. Aerin asked me what the green stuff was with the rolls. I thought she meant the avocado that was in the rolls, and told her so. A few minutes later she brings me a spoonful of wasabi. I said, "Oh, that's wasabi and it will take your head off!"

Aerin said, "I already found that out!"

Princess Activity

This morning was our Stake put on a Princess For A Day activity for the 8-11 year old girls. Here's Princess Aerin, on the runway:

The Horror!

Aerin: Mom, I'm so glad that I'm not in Mrs. Crenshaw's class and that you put me in Mrs. Barth's class.
Mom: Why is that?
Aerin: She's teaching them yoga!
