mail time and weekend wishes


i was a nanny, and my sister is 10 years younger, so forgive me for this:

does anyone remember the "mail time" segment on blue's clues where they sing, "we just got a letter, we just got a letter, we just got a letter. i wonder who it's from"?

'cause that's how i feel every time the mail comes.

and while we're on the subject of children's tv, i'd just like to put it out there that i love the backyardigans.

and on that completely random note, i would like to wish you all a fantastically, delightfully magical three day (four days for me - yippee skippee!) weekend from us to you!

  5. Love the pic of you and Levi! I have five nieces and nephews under the age of 10, so I know exactly what you're talking about... and have you seen Wonder Pets? I always think, "the phone... the phone is ringing..." every time the phone rings because of that silly cartoon.

  13. All 6 of my siblings are 9 or more years younger than me, I totally understand. I still sing "clean up" in my head, every time I clean my house.

    Where are you in this picture? It looks amazing.

  16. Blues Clues was my obsession as a small child.

    And I watched the backyardigans all summer with my nephew. We learned the songs together. Lol

  18. You should now know that I, being 32 years of age, learned the Planet Song from Blue's Clue's, about 10 years ago when I worked at a daycare. :) And it was with the "original" S-T-E-V-E, Steve, that's me.
