When it Rains ...it POURS!!!!!!

We had our second visit from our Social Worker this evening. All was going well...how is her attachment, how is she sleeping, eating, does she like having a brother???? Yadda, yadda, yadda....
So, The Pirate is getting antsy because it is dinner time. He climbs onto the chair behind me and is hanging off the chair WHEN....The Mermaid comes up and tickles his feet. WHAM!!!! Right in the nose goes his foot! No big deal, right? She didn't scream, cry or complain. She walks away and turns around and BLOOD!!!!! Coming right out her nose....of all times to do this! I clean her up....she is still not screaming or crying. Problem is, it won't stop bleeding!!!! 15 minutes later...it stops. Thank God! I have to say, he got her good. It looks better now and it has stopped gushing.
Well, I can only imagine what the Social Worker thinks????? I hope she does not write this up in her report to the CCAA for our 6 month check. Of all days....why????

Moosical!

Lining up for practice.

Look who came with her class to watch.
My little elf!


The first graders at The Pirates school put on their Christmas program...Mossical. It is about a moose that wants to pull Santa's sleigh. The Pirate was an Elf and the Superstar was a Toy Soldier. I was able to sneak in today during school and catch their dress rehersal...so, there are pictures from the day and tonight. They did a great job. We loved it!!!!!!!

More Moosical!!!!!
