Casper, for a change

fleamr. flea called this morning to report that while he stepped out of the bathroom to put on pants, Casper took my deodorant and dabbed it all over her face, and it says on the back to call Posion Control if ingested, and should he be worried? Since he washed her face immediately, and she hadn't bitten the stick or otherwise visibly ingested any, I told him I think she'll be okay. He gave her some milk just in case, to dilute anything.
So much for sense increasing with age! Apparently she treated it like "lipstick" which in our house means Burt's Bees lip balm, which she is allowed to apply and loves.
Her play at school is much more social now. I think it has been for some time, but it's gotten to the point where she talks about social play and her school friends. Right now Duhlivia and Delancey are her best friends - they are identical twins and big outdoorsy girls like Casper. Duhlivia is really named Olivia, of course, but Casper insists on pronouncing it Duhlivia. They play games during outside time that involve chasing Matthew Ya (who used to be in their class but now is in another) and he says "grrr!" and they "put fire on him" apparently using rocks as lasers or something. Evan "makes everyone giggle" and Jasleen is getting a new baby sister and goes ice skating and Casper wants skates, too, "pink ones" so she can ice skate.
She knows who Santa Claus is, and knows he lives at "the south pole."
She's been especially interested in Madeline this week - we have the first book and also Madeline's Rescue, plus a Madeline doll. When we read before bed Casper recites the book along with the reading parent.
Very interested in verbal games, especially rhymes.
