Groundhog Day

Cali's arrival home from school each day is an event. She can't just quietly open the door and calmly enter the house. Oh no. She alternates ringing the doorbell {even when the door is open} and pounding on the door. Once inside she kicks off her shoes, drops her backpack, and runs {sprints} to the bathroom. This whirlwind of homecoming is usually accompanied by a lot of laughing, yelling, story telling, possible dancing, and maybe even a little screaming to top it all off.

This afternoon as she came in the door she poked a little groundhog out of a Styrofoam cup and yelled, "That stupid groundhog saw it's shadow...now we have six more weeks of stinkin' winter!"

{Note} While I was typing this post she snuck down the stairs quietly, snuck up behind Carter, yelled "Roar! Did you miss me today!!!!" and scared him to tears. So, now I have one kid napping {Caleb} one kid laughing {Cali} and one kid crying {Carter}.
