Jim Lehrer Interviews Wordgirl

The girls and I discovered a relatively new cartoon today on PBS called Wordgirl. She's a 10 year old superhero that uses her superhero strength combined with her extensive vocabulary to save the day. We absolutely love this show! Afterwards, the girls spent most of the day re-enacting the show and creating "diversions" -(Wordgirl's word of the day)!

It's a Tough Life

One day as I was trying to get through the mad rush of a weekday morning (making sure the girls get dressed, brush their teeth, eat their breakfast, do their hair, pack lunches, pack the bags, put on my makeup, etc.) I decide to turn to Lindsay for help...

"Lindsay, could you push the button on the coffee machine for me?"

Her response -

"WHY DO I ALWAYS HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING AROUND HERE?!"

Jess vs the Sun

One sunny day, Jess was riding in the backseat of Dave's car and kept saying "Stop it....stop...STOP IT!!".

So Dave asks her "What's the matter Jess?" and she responds "The sun is in my mouth!"
