"I want waffles."
HA! Makes me laugh that was her first phrase....well, except "hi dad" and saying "hi" to anyone else she knows. She doesn't say that much...understandably. She babbles a lot and I think "Someday I'll understand what she's thinking." She really only says, "Mommy", "Dada", "Eden", "Leila", "Molly", (a few other names of friends in our neighborhood), "apple", "amen", "ME!" (raising her hand to get called on to get something she wants or to say the prayer mimicking sisters), and maybe a few noises of animals and things. But she stated clearly today that she wanted waffles. She even said it twice. I've never heard her say, "I" or "want" or "waffles" separately, let alone together in a sentence, until today.
Then the day went on...
School.
Chores.
Store.
Service Friday.
We (it ended up me and SEVEN kids but it really worked out well) made paper flowers and cards for Father's Day. We are (hopefully) going to the Riverside Care Center to give these out to the people there to wish them a happy Father's Day and (late) Mother's Day.
Then....
Play Time.
Dinner.
And a trip to our favorite place....the "walking path".
I think it may be called the Line Creek Trail. I'm not really sure because we always just call it the Walking Path. But it is our favorite place and the girls have been SO excited for it to warm up enough to jump into that water. (And it has DEFINITELY warmed up...too much in fact.)
Tyson actually took the kids home in the car and I decided to walk/jog home (the path leads right to our house and we decided to drive farther up, closer to this water area, instead and skip the walk this time).
Then off to bed.
Super warn out
....to wake up tomorrow morning to the start of swimming lessons
...and dad leaving for a 24 hour shift.
