TwinkleToes’ daytime care provider puts in a lot of teaching time. Every week they concentrate on a letter of the alphabet, and every Tuesday she has to take something with her that starts with that letter. They don’t do the letters in order, so it’s not really something we can plan on, we just know that Monday night we have to go through her toys and find something she wants to take that starts with some letter.

This week is the letter V.  I got home a little late and RK was working on it in his head. He’s usually got several ideas by the time I get home, and then we talk about it and let TT decide.

I get home and look through the paperwork and say “hmmm, the letter V”. And he says “well, there’s something she always has with her, but they probably don’t want to talk about that”.

To which I reply “she could take GlitterGirl and say she’s a virgin”.

Yeah, we’re a bit slap happy this evening.

I came up with vest, velvet, van, veterinarian, volcano, vegetable. The play van is huge and impractical, TT didn’t want to take a vest, I decided against her velvet dress, we can’t find Veterinarian Barbie (well, we can find the Barbie, just not the outfit, and a naked Barbie that used to be the Veterinarian probably won’t cut it), and we don’t seem to have any volcanoes laying around.

She’s taking a piece of play lettuce and a play potato and we’re sending a note that they are vegetables.
