Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery

Kellen has taken a liking to soccer. It's hard to tell if that is because he is taking a genuine interest or if he just wants to be like his big sister. He found Kristin's jersey draped over the rocking chair and wanted to put it on. Kristin was a good sport about it, so we put it on him and he was very excited.

Kristin's kindergarten class is studying the life cycle of the butterfly. Their class even got some caterpillars to feed and watch grow. Kristin was jumping-up-and-down excited yesterday to tell me that all 5 of the caterpillars in her kindergarten room had gone into their chrysalis. Apperantly not all of the caterpillars in the other two kindergarden classes had gone into their chrysalis yet. 'They were still eating'.

Danelle got the kids out into the back yard this evening. Sounds like Kellen learned how to use the hose. When they came back inside, Kellen came over to me repeating 'wet hug wet hug'. Almost like someone had egged him on. :-)

I took the photo below on Saturday when Kristin was in between shifts during her soccer game. Do they call them shifts in soccer? I wonder if they publish a soccer-hockey translation dictionary...
