Notable Quote
– things you never expect to hear
This comment was neither coerced nor prompted. I swear this is something never before heard from any child on the planet.
“Oh my gosh! The carpet looks beautiful!”
I defy anyone to challenge that one. I think it was because I’d just vacuumed and the fibres of the carpet seemed mown like grass.
On a side note. A request for information from all dog lovers. Thatcher’s tail is still blue from the sidewalk chalk. If anyone has any hints as to how we may return him to his pre-rainbow days, we should be most grateful.
Whilst the geeks were all off at Maker Faire I was mastering livescribe I have a long way to go but assistive technology has finally won me over.
Today I am also over “here” at “5 Minutes for Special Needs Moms.”

Blue looks good on him

We recently finished part of our basement and moved our son down there so I could have my own office upstairs. His is the only room in the house with wall-to-wall carpet. The first time he saw it, he rolled around on it like a little puppy and said, “I am the luckiest boy in the world!” Who knew all it would take to make him happy was a bit of carpet?
But you gotta admit, freshly vacuumed carpet does look nice.

I don’t know how to de-blue dogs unfortunately… that’s why I got a brown one! Hides all the dirt

Try “Prell” shampoo…you really don’t want to know how I know this.

Nigel is also a carpet lover due to his incessant somersaulting. But he’s never called it beautiful before! That is indeed notable.
