I caved

3.2.11

I do recall complaining this morning to some ladies about how strange it is how our children now celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday. I just don’t get it. I don’t get why my children’s entire elementary school would be gathering together to sing happy birthday to Dr. Seuss. He’s dead as of 1991. I just googled it. I get that it’s fun and all that. But, all the hub bub is a little over the top.

Then, I picked up Drew from school. And, there he was proudly wearing his Cat-in-the-Hat hat. 
And, he asked me for green eggs and ham for lunch.
And, I caved.

There they are. Funny how simply changing the color of something yummy can really make it totally unappealing (hence why Heinz discontinued their colored ketchup line. Ick. And, I say again Ick.).
No, my kids will not get Dr. Seuss day gifts or a special birthday cake. But, I guess eating a little green eggs and ham won’t kill me or them.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
