clogging toilets in the name of peace

We were pleasantly surprised to wake up to snow flurries this morning.  There's no snow on the ground but there was a tiny bit on our cars and the deck.  It was just barely snowing at 7 this morning and so far hasn't stopped.  Emily is enjoying undecorating the Christmas tree.  She thinks the ornaments are balls and has been chucking them across the room.  She's wearing her favorite around her wrist as a bracelet.  

This afternoon when I picked Anthony up from school, it looked and sounded like he was in trouble with one of the teachers in charge of parent pick up.  When they called his name, HIS teacher came over and wanted to talk to me.  Ms. Dale said he tried to flush a milk carton down the toilet and had to go to the vice principles office.  Then at parent pick up, he drew a peace sign on his forehead with magic marker.  When we got home I sent him to his room and told him he was to sit on his bed and to be still and quiet.  A couple minutes later, I saw that his door was closed and Emily was missing.  I went to check on them and the two of them were sitting on his bed and Anthony was reading Emily a book.  How could I stay mad :)
