Christmas

At Christmastime there's Christmas trees, and dancing, and music. I like building snowmen. Jesus was being borned. I watched Madeline's Christmas. I really like it. That's all there is. There isn't anymore.

Dear My Friends,

Julia, please come over. Can you get some more grass and put it in your yard. Daddy has a picture of me.

Dear Jesus, I love ya. Bye-bye.

I like food. Love ya!

Strawberry Shortcake

Strawberry Shortcake flies up to the sky. She goes back down. A pie takes her strawberries. That's all I know about Strawberry Shortcake.

The birds help Cinderella go up to the sky. That's all I know about Cinderella.

I know the Muffin Man. He lives on Turry Lane.

Daddy helped me play with the tee. Nothing. What do you want to climb? A wall? Do you want to jump to the sky? Do you want to jump to the moon. I jumped to the sky. Do you want to ride the sun?

Love from Gracie

Do you want to play with me? Come over. Can you come over when Charlie is up from his nap so we can play upstairs? Do you want to go upstairs? What do you want to do today? What have you been doing since you left?

I want to tell the story of Goliath. Goliath hits a stone right in his eye. That's all I remember.

I have a baa baa. Do you know the muffin man? Do you have any ears? Do you have a computer? Julia, I love you. Can you come over and do you want to see some more toys?

We're taking Charlie to go to the doctor. He's going to have a check-up. I'm going to bring my own books because some people might have the flu there. (Note from Brooke-I'm making my daughter paranoid, but at least she'll be healthy!)

Grandma, do you want to play pretend with me? Happy Birthday Boppo! Can you come over today? Grandma, you come over, too!

Bye-bye computer! Bye Grandma! Bye Julia!

A Belle Story for Auntie Kate

Once upon a time there was Belle. She got lost and her dad first got lost. And there's Gaston. The end. He hit the beast. Can you play pretend with me? Can you jump up to the sky as high as me?

(Singing)
Beauty and the Beast
Tale as old as time
Beauty and the Beast

For Daddy and Everybody

Can you buy any stickers for my birthday? I don't have any. Can you get some now if you want to? Can you have some fun with me? Do you have any treats for me to have? You can buy some if you don't have any. Can you get some costumes for me for Halloween? I want to be Belle. Can you get that costume for me? Do you have any garage sale stickers I can play with? I like princesses. I really love Daddy. Hi Julia. Can you come over? Will everybody come over to my house to play with me?

I went to the beach. I went way out. I love you. I like purple pizza. We played in the backyard. I was holding Hudson.

Princesses

There's a mean witch in Sleeping Beauty. Why do you like Cinderella? I like Cinderella. I love you. Who do you know about? She pricks her finger. Belle gave him a rose.

For Daddy

We're putting more food in the hummingbird feeder. We mix sugar and water.

Spanish Speaking

Hi. Hi-ho the derio! I want to say all kinds of Spanish. Hola. Mami. Hi-ho the derio. Ball.

I love you.

Pictures by Grace

I used my own camera and you take pictures with it.

Ooh-ooh! Aah-Aah! Quack! Quack! Quack! I want to make all the animal sounds today. Mmm...Mmmm....Mmm. Rar! Rar! Rar! That's a bear sound. I don't know what a penguin says. Who! Who!

I'm going to ride my tricycle to Grandma's house. I like triangles.

Ruby

Ruby come to our house. Ruby is a hummingbird. Is there another hummingbird? Yup, there is, but I don't really know her name. She has a red head and she is kind of brown. Hallelujah.

We played in a hopscotch thing already. I got all wet. Nobody's here. Just me and Mommy. And Daddy's at work.

I'm going to a park for playgroup. Julia and Kayla and Sami are coming. I have lots of friends. I love you.

For Jake

I like comments. Hallelujah. Put it in a heart.

I'm going to have ice cream tomorrow at Red Robin. And who is at Red Robin right now? Anybody? Put it in the envelope!

5.13.09

Hallelujah. Julia I like you. Grandma I love you. I went to Grammy's house and I played there all day and night. Hallelujah. I went to a store, to Matthews. That's all I want to say.

How to make a cracker cake

First you put crackers on. Then you put frosting on. Then you put sprinkles on. I made it at Grandma's house. It tastes good. And that's all.

I want to tell a story about what I want to do today. And one about a little girl and a doctor. I love my dear Grandma. I went in a cart and we got diapers and wipes. Thank you.
