dragon zone

Kirsten returned back to school on Monday, after a full 3 weeks of vacation (well, a week of it had to do with her surgery). She was happy to go back to see her friends, as expected. On that first day back, the whole class was allowed to bring something for show and tell (normally, they only do one child per day). I was trying to help Kirsten decide what she got for Christmas that she might like to bring with her. Her first thought was the bean bag she'd received from Nana & Papa, but that definitely wouldn't fit into her backpack! The next thought is what she ended up deciding on... Dragon. Yes, the same beautiful girl dragon you've seen in the Shrek movies. But the funny thing is that she's had this toy for a few years already! It's not new at all! Heart set on it, I had to let her do it! And while we were waiting at the bus stop in the car that morning, we listened to a dragon song ("Do the Dragon" by Laurie Berkner, a singer of fun kids' songs!)!

Just look at those powerful wings! Watch out for that tail!


She's so fierce! (Or is she just yelling for baby Dronkey?!?)


She'll stare you down!


Awwww, isn't she so pretty?!?
