Monday Evening


Just as we were gathering for dinner this lovely-almost-autumn evening I noticed that Grace had climbed into her seat and was still reading one of the books she took out from the library today.  So, of course I did what any good bloggin' mama does and I made a beeline for the camera.  And while I am not entirely sure of how much she's actually reading and how much of it is simply looking at the pages, we are over the moon to see how often lately she is found curled up with a good book.  Each night after Em falls alseep she gets out her flashlight and reads in bed.  And not a day goes by that she's not spotted in several locations around our house reading.  I love that there's a strong foundation being built for her when it comes to reading and I love that it's all happening at her own pace.  I have a feeling it won't be long before she is reliably reading and I have a feeling that once that happens she'll be devouring books quicker than we know what to do with!

A Little Bit of This and a Little Bit of That

Today was one of those days where we did a little bit of everything, or at least it felt that way.







We went to dinner at with our friends from The Chronicles of Mad Molly.  
Emma decided to put her cheese cubs in my water. 

Sure, it may be gross, but she had a blast!



The girls absolutely love the ladies room at the mall. 
They love to dance under the crystal chandelier. 

While she is dancing, Emma is singing: 
"I know you" from Sleeping Beauty's Once Upon a Dream song. 
A bathroom with a fabulous crystal chandelier totally lends itself to dancing under it 
while singing that song.

Then it was time to visit Daddy.

For the past ten years, David has worked part time at Williams-Sonoma. 

It's always a treat to visit Daddy at the store.  





We had a wonderful day, full of simple adventures and good friends.
On that note, dear friends, I am going to head to bed.  
We'll see you tomorrow.
