so my daughter came back from preschool with a construction paper turkey that listed,
in order, the five things she was the most thankful for, as follows:
1. preschool
2. walking
3. cars
4. oranges
5. mommy and daddy
that's right; i am valued LESS than citrus fruits and perambulatory motion by my own progeny. points to her for buttering up the institution with her first pick, though!

edit: i kinda question the validity of this list, though, since "stuart little," her favorite movie AND her imaginary friend, didn't make the cut.
