"We have fire drills in preschool."
"So what do you do when there is a fire drill?" I ask.
"We got out and stand on the hill. Then fire-martian comes."

Ivan tells on Mama's refusal to give a cookie
"Dada, Mama didn't want to give me a cookie yesterday. She said no," Ivan informed Andy first thing this morning while we were still in bed. Those were the first words out of his mouth after he woke up.
It's true. I didn't give him a cookie yesterday considering that he had chocolate in the morning, Andy said that he had been lobbying for a cookie since 5 p.m. when they came home. Andy went to the movies at 7
with Olexa (his one rare time out) and I put Ivan to bed. He did continue to lobby for the cookie several times during the evening, but he didn't have a meltdown about it. Who knew it would make such an impression on him.
Today I packed him a cookie for lunch. I was hoping it would be a surprise, but he inspected his lunch box before we left this morning. Seeing the cookie made him smile.
