Holland’s First Field Trip

A big day for Holland, as her preschool class went on a field trip to the California Science Center. We got the dates mixed up and didn’t realize the field trip was today. When I took Holland to school at 9:30am, the kids were lining up to get on the bus. They got back about 4:30pm, so it was a long day for our 4-year-old.

She was fine, though. Came home and played until dinner time, then played more. She finally settled down to watch Jack’s Big Music Show and went to bed.

Here’s part of our conversation on the way home from school:

Daddy: “What else did you see at the museum?”
Holland: “We saw three airplanes and one rocket!”
Daddy: “Cool! Was it a big rocket?”
Holland: “It wasn’t too big. It didn’t break the sky.”

Holland's Latest Catch Phrases

Some of Holland's current favorite things to say:

• "No way, remember that!"
• "Yes, of course, what was I thinking?"
• "I'm gonna go to the Poopy Window and poop and pee."

Actually, she's only said that last one once, as far as I know. The Poopy Window is, as the name implies, where Holland goes to poop. She goes behind the curtain for privacy.
