Easter, Duncan

This is a post from Jo's blog... I said I wanted to post before but she beat me... losers or what? :)
Kali got her little acoustic guitar and tried to be a little Taylor Swift. She was writing songs. They all had the same tune, and pretty much the same words. There are 3.

Song # 1 (as written):
I see your fase.
I see yor eyes.
Nuthen nose ubout your fase
in the sky.
I see you evree war. In the sky.


Song # 2:
I see yor hous in the sky.
Nuthen nose ubout yor hous.


Song # 3- The Stalker Ballad:
I now your fone number.
I see your hous.
I now evree thang 
about you.
This is my last song. 


Well, she is precious but I don't see a future in song writing for her. Poor baby.


Easter was nice.  Saturday was really fun... we celebrated Nick, Alli, Elise and Isaac's birthdays.  The WHOLE Cicero clan was there.  Towards the end of the day we were sitting outside when Nick's niece was told to let her dog out.  He came near Duncan and they went at it.  The dog had Duncan by the throat.  It was awful!  The poor kids were outside and Isaac is already terrified of dogs and poor Kami thought it was all of her fault.  We finally managed to get the dogs apart.  I grabbed Duncan and his head was still swinging and biting.  He got me on my arm.  Only one of his teeth broke skin.  My adrenaline was pumping so hard it didn't even hurt that much.  Nick took me to Baton rouge to the Lake after hours to get a shot and antibiotics.  Everyone knows how much I love shots.  I cried but it wasnt that bad.  It was a bad ending to a great day.  But thank God Duncan came out of it ok.  Sunday we went to Lakeland for mass.  Father Greg did an awesome job.  I could listen to him sing all day.  We came back to Plaquemine and boiled crawfish before Nick left.  It was a nice weekend.

Yesterday I finally got a new automatic door lock things for my car and changed my oil.  I was way overdue.  We took the kids with us and they have been playing really well together lately.  Kali keeps telling me that the slumber party tomorrow is going to be "the funnest day EVER!"

Today I got my PRAXIS scores back.  I did really good on my PLT (the one I did not have to pass until next year). I did so well that I got an "excellence recognition" for scoring in the top percentile.  I did not pass my content knowledge.  I had to register for it again.  They charge a $75 emergency registration fee on top of the test fee.  I was really upset and nervous that this will be my last chance to pass.  I believe that everything happens for a reason though.  This makes me want it even more.  I will be a teacher.  So I retake it in ten days.  Say a little prayer for me.

Poor Duncan had a bad day.  Me and Kali took him to the vet.  We walk in and they tell me he has no apt.  I said that he did.  Come to find out I was at the WRONG veterinary clinic!!  I was so embarrassed.  I went to the place that we took our dogs to when we were little.  I called mom and she told me where to go.  I brought him to the right place and he had to get ALL of his shots.  Most of them he already had but they were three year.  They said the rules are different parish to parish and Iberville doesn't honor three year vaccines.  He had about 8 shots, a fecal float, blood test, and he was so pissed he wouldn't even eat the treat they gave him.  They had to muzzle him because he was being aggressive.  I would be too is someone were sticking something up my but, taking blood and giving me shots.  Thankfully he is good, no infection from the fight, no heart worms.  My baby just needs a haircut.  

I am excited for the slumber party tomorrow.  Hopefully it will get my mind off of the test.  Kali and sara are pumped and I am happy to finally come through on my promise.  Kali has been so patient.
