Snapshots of Our Weekend


Favorite Moments
buttering bread in the garage (the butter was sawdust and the bread was wood scraps)
watching Gracie ride her bike
shopping for toys for Madelyn
Gracie telling Jim and me that she loves us
Madelyn waving to me and saying hi


In Gracie's words
Gracie: "What are you doing, Daddy?"
Jim: "Writing a letter to the people who made Madelyn's crib so we can get new parts for it."
Gracie: "Are you writing to God?"
Jim: "What?"
Gracie: "God made everything, so he made Madelyn's crib."

Gracie is very in to making up her own dreams and telling us about them. At breakfast this morning...
Gracie: "I had a dream last night. It was called Upstairs and Downstairs."
Jim: "Your dreams have titles?"

The other day, Gracie typed a message to her grandparents. We told her they sent her a message back, and she said, "I guess they didn't want it." She thought they had sent her message back to her because they didn't want it!
