Refreshed our restaurant go-pack for an upcoming vacation. For a hot second McDonalds gave out tiny books in happy meals. We’d probably eat there more than once a year if they kept doing that.
Kids school supply case that looks like a monster. Contents of school supple case: calculator, mini pinball game, water toy, mini Simon game, two small Pete the cat books, bag of wix stix, mini uno and off brand Lego set.

We’re on our third snow day in a row. I’d ask for suggestions on how to keep my kindergartener occupied, but I assure you, we’ve already done it.

Just imagine the thrill of listening to a room of children absolutely lose their shit when you draw your most beloved character! What a fab afternoon at @rabbitholekc.bsky.social

Just finished the Toys series with my 6 y/o and we both feel so happy, warm, fuzzy and calm (although a little sad there’s not another one). Truly bedtime read aloud perfection!

While this is more parental involvement than I typically support, I couldn’t get the kid to muster much energy for the valentines themselves (aside from choosing a bouncy ball as a toy) so I (and my #silhouettecameo) took the wheel.

I’ve had my heart broken before, but my 6 y/o is wholly uninterested in making a Valentine’s Day mailbox and I’m not sure I’ll ever really recover.

The world is garbage and everything’s on fire, BUT at the elementary school art fair tonight, a little girl from my son’s kindergarten class came up to me on all fours, barking, pretending to be our dog. So there’s that.

My dog and my cat are best buds in a way that is, quite frankly, obscene. #frankandpete

Extremely niche alert! The only thing I’ve made (that I can share) in the past 5 mos. are these flash cards for my son and his #suzukimethod viola class. Handing out at the party they earned for holding their violas for all the twinkles! (It’s very cute)
Square cardstock flash cards depicting anthropomorphic cartoon illustrations of a pepperoni pizza, a running pony, a pineapple, watermelon and a star holding sparklers.

I woke up this morning feeling a bit overwhelmed at the week ahead. But as I cleaned out my 6 y/o’s backpack and readied him for the day, I thought to myself, yeah, I’m also glad I don’t have 100 scabs.

In the past year, we acquired both a real life tuxedo cat and a Lego tuxedo cat and it’s been nonstop fun.

If anyone’s curious what book the kindergarteners are all taking turns checking out from the school library it’s this. I think it imparts a great message for how to survive during these fraught times.
