Today, Jameson went on his first field trip without me. I was originally told that no siblings were allowed on the field trip, only to find out today, that we could have actually gone. So, instead Ian and I headed to the gym to see if there were any classes that I could take. I stopped by the free daycare service to see if there was a waiting list. I found out instead that my registration had expired and I needed to fill out paperwork. I decided to go ahead and fill it out, so that if or when I wanted to come back later, everything would be ready to go. Instead, I had some stupid daycare worker yelling at me about Ian's bare feet. I told her I wasn't going to leave him there, I was just trying to fill out the short form and would leave. She lectured me about the safety hazard I was imposing and told me I had to hold him as I filled out the paperwork. Right, I am going to hold a squirming 2.5 year old while I fill out paperwork. I mean after all, I didn't just spend the last FOUR months registering the two boys through Child and Youth Services, so they needed more paperwork. And wow, I was really putting these people out with my barefoot child in their stupid child care room for 2.5 minutes. So, I left. I guess the Army wants the wives to stay fat.
I was able to get haircuts for both boys today. Ian shook the entire time, like it was excruciating. That was very sad. But his hair is adorable.
So, today's news? Among the tragic and sometimes stupid (like the Mormon getting in trouble for his shirtless calender) I found this story about a brother and a sister that have be reunited after being seperated in 1942. I will warn you, I got pretty emotional reading it. It is another reminder of what is really important in life.
