Ewww Dirt

Ha ha April Fools. I hate potatoes! We didn't eat them for dinner. Did I fool you?
This is one of my favorite holidays. I could probably write an entire novel on April Fools Jokes I've played on people throughout my life. One year I actually won a very nice portable DVD player in a radio contest for the best April Fool's prank. (I ended up selling it on Ebay and buying a digital camera with the money.)
I didn't have a lot of time to play many jokes this year since I had to work, teach preschool, then fulfill my church calling at enrichment night. But I still played a few. First, last night while Ella was asleep, I put her in Lily's crib, and Lily in Ella's bed. Ella woke up at 5am, and came into our room very confused. She tapped on my shoulder, and said, "Mom, I woke up and I wasn't in my bed, I was in Lily's crib, and I don't know where I am." So I helped her into bed, where she discovered Lily sleeping, which she found to be absolutely hilarious. Tyler didn't think it was a very funny joke.
As I previously mentioned It was my turn to teach preschool this week. Today I taught the girls about smell, touch, and taste. We tasted all different kinds of foods, salty, spicy, sweet, & etc. I asked them if any of them had ever tasted dirt, and if they thought it would taste good. Then I grabbed a handful of dirt (mashed Oreo cookies) and started eating it. The girls faces were hilarious. I tried to get them to try some, but they wouldn't. Finally after I convinced them it was the yummiest dirt I had ever eaten, everyone (except Ella) decided to try it. Ella still wouldn't try it until I announced it was an April fools joke, and the dirt was actually a mashed up cookie.

On another topic. Tyler thinks I made it sound like he got fired in my previous post. So I just wanted to clear things up. He wasn't fired. He will still do work for Unicad when they need him. There are certain clients Tyler will still be working with, but it may be months before they need his services, and he will be able to help them from our home.
