Pencils

We recently found an Panasonic electric pencil sharpener at a thrift store for $2. We've had a school-type manual sharpener for quite a while, but the girls have trouble using it. It's been great that J and S have been able to get sharp pencils by themselves now.

G, however, has trouble. She puts the pencils in to engage the motor but not quite far enough to get them sharp. When you holler at her to knock it off, she says, 'Mom, it's not pokiepine'.

I have no idea where she got that.
