1.  The name of  our adopted cat who really only comes over for food and to poop in my flower bed (yeah, try to explain to a 3 year old why cats bury their poop)  is not Spots, it’s TomTom.  I told Claire that and she told me “no Mommy, her names is Spots”.

2.  Apparently the playhouse is “not a sharing house today” because Madeline can’t climb in through the window and “mommy, you’re too talk to play in her because because its only only for kids like me, but not Maddy”.

3.  Madeline REALLY likes dark chocolate.  She had a minor meltdown when we went to pick up my last check at my old office and she had to leave without a third handful of Mark’s M&M’s.
