show this off! :) The first one was a little rocky, but once I reminded you of a few minor details each card got better! After working with Abby on her math for a little bit you said, “Look Mom, I’m done with this one.” Needless to say we commenced to cheer and woot!

As you can imagine at this time of year there were leaves galore just waiting beneath for some happy-go-lucky children to scoop them up and have a party! All [...]

another birthday party. It was your first big bash and your fourth birthday! It was a bit chilly for an outside party but otherwise beautiful and sunny.
You asked every day last week if your “birthday was tomorrow.” Well, your birthday was Monday but your party was Saturday. We attempted to explain this on several occasions [...]
