The Moo has heard a lot of talk about retiring lately, what with Grandpa D's retirement party. She told me the other day that she had "retired" from Beantree when she started to go to Loudoun Country Day. And yesterday she came down the stairs with her sleeping bag in tow. When I asked her with her sleeping bag and pillow in tow. When I asked her what she was up to, she said "I'm retiring from sleeping upstairs. I'm sleeping down here now."
In the meantime, the Bean has learned a new word from the source of all wisdom, Spongebob. A few days ago in the morning, she asked me what "mediocre" meant, and it came out that Spongebob called Squidward a mediocre clarinet player. I explained to her that "mediocre" means "not very good." Then I asked her to use the word in the sentence to show me she understood what it meant. She thought a little bit, looked at me, and said, "These eggs are mediocre."
