In like a lion (rrrarrr, rrrrarr)
Out like a lamb (baaaa, baaa)
Our girls sang as they boasted about their predictions for March's forecast. Although the weather has been sunny, the mornings have been bitter cold! I love getting to see life through eyes of a child.
We have been simply going through the daily grind of school and home. Over President's Day weekend, Breanne kicked Madison in the mouth and knocked out the remaining front tooth. It seems so comical to me. Also, we tried to break the weekend up with a trip to the Reef. On our way out the door, I asked Derrick if he had grabbed the money. Aliya quickly told us that, "Papa has money. Papa has money." Too bad papa wasn't coming along!
However, last weekend, we did get to see Grandma Barb and Papa. We met for a weekend in Rapid City. The girls enjoyed swimming and lots of grandma and grandpa time.
Madi and Bre were excited to kick off the read-a-thon at school on March 1st. The big girls are both doing great with their reading and are excited about reading. Madison read Super Completely and Totally the Messiest (a family favorite) all on her own! Derrick is eager to read the Narnia series to them every night before bed. They've just finished The Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe, and are starting book three.
They also love to read to Aliya and now, just like big sisters, Aliya informs me that she's going to read to me.Yesterday, they came home with their Doctor Seuss hats towering overhead. And Madison was hopefully to have green eggs and ham for dinner. Breanne dreading it, I made Madi hold off 'til breakfast.
