A quick note before I die.
Published by amberlicious October 19th, 2008 in How I torment my kids, My mom says I'm funnyDang this cold. I feel like there is an elephant on my chest and my throat is on fire.
Steve was helping Megan with her homework tonight (yes, her homework from last week. We’re steller parents.)
She had to come up with two things that started with A and draw them.
Steve gave her apple. After that we were brainstorming. Here is our list.
Australia
Awesome
Aphrodisiac (it’s okay- she doesn’t know what it means)
Accordion (she doesn’t know what that means either)
Anteater
applesauce
ant (she didn’t want to draw a picture of her aunts)
ass
So we resorted to Google. That didn’t help. We got a bunch of pictures of and videos of apples.
What are your favorite A words?
argyle
africa
alissa
annika

One more.
“Annoying”
I thought of that one after seeing my last comment.

Couldn’t you do an A animal like armadillo or ant or anteater or ardvark or antelope. Just a thought.
There’s a nasty cold going around, here too! The baby just got it! I hope you get better soon!
What about archer, albatross or Amber?

aardvark. How about Absolut, that is a vodka, I have seen LOTS of pictures for it in magazines. Antediluvian is another favorite of mine, although once more, difficult to use.

(I’m just thinking of the A book…ants are amazing…)
I’m sorry you’ve been ill. I hope you’re feeling better.
My A words:
alliteration
ample
Alabama
Adam
acronym
the first 2 “a” words that came to my mind were:
amphitheater and astronaut, then a few names (ashley, angie), and then always. Weird.
Sorry about the cold! No fun.
Aircraft
Anthropologie (the store or the science)
Aluminum
Ape
Anorexia (I’d like to see her teacher’s reaction to her knowing that one!)
Amphibious
Adam Ant (there’s a two-fer!)
Hope you get lots of help and chicken soup (and brownies).
