Bela had to spend a little time in the Nurse's office at school for redness in her eye. She gave me this little nugget on the drive home from school.

"Mom, I read this poster in Nurse Baker's office today. It said that kids need 1 hour a day of activity. So I will be doing 1 hour of piano a day I guess from now on."

Bela's Bytes - Bunny Bites

"I am saving the butt for last." -Bela got a dark chocolate bunny from the Easter bunny this year. It was solid and quite challenging to bite into. So Marcelo cut it up into pieces and put it in the refrigerator. She and I were snacking on it, and she showed me a piece that had a round little bump on one side. (the tail)

Bela is on Spring Break this week, and we are considering going to see HOP the movie. I was looking up the movie's ratings on parenting website. Found out that it is rated PG for some rude humor, words are used like "stupid" and "idiot." I told Bela what I found out. She said, "Mom, I think it's like a life lesson. Some kids might see that in the movie, and their Moms will say.. 'we don't use rude words like those sweetie.' and then the kids won't use those words, because they will see how awful it looks in the movie."

Bela: "Mom, a few week after Easter, I am going to be taking the SAT 10 at school. Please please pray for me. I am really nervous about taking them."

Me: "Sure honey, I really know you will work hard and do great!"

Bela: "Thanks. Mom, what are SAT 10's?"

Bela: "Mom, if we are called brunettes, what are blondes called?" Me: "Just blondes." Bela: "Oh, I thought that they would have a better name. You know we have brown hair, and we are called brunette. They have blonde hair, and all they get is 'blonde'?"
