Well the day finally came...I had been hoping for years now that Fiona wouldn't be the first one in preschool to swear. I had just had a conversation with one of the teachers...that day...she had lamented that some of the boys were bringing bad words to the fairytale sanctuary that is the Village School. Then, that night as we puttered in the garden I casually mentioned to Fiona that we needed a bit of straw to put down as mulch. Fiona dutifully went to get said straw, but when met with the closed gate..."SHIT." perfectly enunciated, it was clear as a bell. So there, it just took about 5 years and now there is no going back. But at least she wasn't the first one.
On another topic we went to San Francisco for Mothers day and visited the California Academy of Sciences. They were having a special snake exhibit and fiona had been looking forward to going there. We had Ethiopian food for dinner and fiona fell asleep on after 2 minutes in the car on the way home. A perfect mother's day!

You're right... at least she wasn't first (unlike Suzy!)
I love that first photograph. I need a print of that. You should try it in a photo competition.
