So, sleep has been a popular topic around our house these days. I am sure you all know how much Mark loves to sleep. Well, it is definitely echoed and noticed in our house. Two sweet examples:
This morning, Claire, Laura and I were playing while Mark was at church. Just before 9am, suddenly Laura comes over to me, whines, gives me a hug and then walks over to the stairs and looks at me. I walk over and she starts crawling up the stairs, walks to her room, I change her and she goes down for a nap. Like clockwork! Love it!!
The other night, Claire and I were reading the Dr. Seuss book, Maybe you should fly a jet, maybe you should be a vet. As we are going through each page, she would tell me what she wanted to be. When she got to this page, she said, "That's what daddy wants to be!" I will let you guess which one she chose. I just about fell off the bed laughing.
Anyway, all is great in our household. Laura is learning words daily. She's got book, ball, bird, baby, mommy, dada, and foot down pat. Of course, that is in addition to what's that and who's that. She is developing quite the personality, too. As everyone who meets her agrees, she is a mini-mark - both looks and personality. She is very serious, but also very mischievous - a total tease. She loves Claire and Claire loves her. Actually, Claire gets very upset if she doesn't get to kiss her before she takes a nap/goes to bed.
We also have pictures from Claire and Mark's work together planting my mother's day roses and gardenias and also from their special outing this morning for breakfast. Will post those to Mark's picasa account later.
Hope you are all well-rested!
Lynn
