To pay or not to pay - that is the question

Wow, what a debate we had yesterday morning! I guess Gov. Patick wants pre-school to become universal in Mass which means finding an extra $600 mil to pay for it. I'm for it, but Chris is worried about the cost coming back on Joe Public. A lot of you called to support the program, and some of you were against it, but one thing can be said - you were all passionate about your feelings! Feel free to comment here if you like.

Today was lighter. I shared my funny kid story about how my niece, Lilliana, and my daughter, Morgan, took green markers to each other one day. When my sister (who was supervising them that day - not my fault) came into the room and asked what happened, Lilliana, who was almost four at the time (Morgan was just about two), said she and Morgan wanted to be monsters like in Monsters Inc. But when my sister scolded her for writing on herself, she denied it. Ultimately, it came out like this. Lil - "I didn't color myself." Sis - "Then what happened?" Lil - "I colered herself and she colored myself." Ah-ha! That kid is gonna make a great defense lawyer someday! Got any funny kid stories you wanna share? I always love a good laugh!!!

By the way, do you say pointesettIA or pointsettA? Just wondering.....
