We Discover a Mean Streak.


All in all we had a pretty quiet weekend. I spent almost all day yesterday removing 50 year old wallpaper from our "Time Capsule" basement. Ella didnt help at all. I cant say I blame her though. I tried to pay her to do it but she refused my $1/hour offer. Smart kid.

Today we went to Christine's friends Laura and Jerry's for brunch. Brunch was delish and Ella had a great time. She was wearing her new 'camo' pants (camoflage) and everyone was impressed. I kept a close eye on her in case she snuck off into a house plant never to be seen again.

Ella gave us a glimpse of her dark side tonight. During dinner Christine choked on a noodle and Ella gigled. Christine started turning red and choking more and Ella laughed even harder. Im sure that i should have slapped Christine in the back or something, but I was laughing at Ella who thought this was the best thing ever. I even faked choking after and Ella laughed and laughed. Hmmm. We always thought she was an angel but it looks like she's got a dark sense of humour.

(Sorry Laura and Jerry - my pics didnt turn out cos your home is too bright and sunny. Try putting in smaller windows or something.) Heres a pic from a few weeks ago.

Ella and I were talking about this later, and she feels her laughter was just a nervous reaction to the distress of seeing her mother in distress. Then to add to her distress, her father started to make light of the grave situation. I hate to think how much therapy she'll need by the time she reaches adulthood...
