14 March 2015

Madelyn and Emlyn were sitting next to each other on the couch. I was behind them and didn't know what was going on, but I randomly heard Madelyn say to Emlyn, "You're a cute little child. Did you know that?"

This week in school, Madelyn learned the "Our Father". She was reciting it for us at dinner. 

Me, trying to make sure she realized when we say that prayer: When do we say the Our Father?
Madelyn: At church.
Me, looking for her to answer something about holding hands: What are we doing when we are saying it?
Madelyn: Praying it.
Me: Well, yes....

I think Madelyn is confused about the change of seasons, or this describes Maryland just right. You be the judge.

Tony picked the girls up today. As they were leaving Mom's house, Madelyn declared:

"It's so cool and warm out here!"

Tony brought home Panera for dinner since me + stomach bug = not fixing dinner. When Madelyn got home and realized that he got Panera, she insisted, "Daddy, you HAD to get me mac and cheese!" There was no asking if he got her mac and cheese, just certainty that it happened. Luckily, it had.

Madelyn came out from the playroom to excitedly show us her DUPLO creation. It was an airplane, and a pretty good one actually:

"Look! I made an airplane! It's red because red is one of my favorite colors because it's a color in the rainbow. I used a swing for where the pilot sits. And, there's room for someone to fly in the plane. Caroline is flying in the plane because she's old enough to fly by herself."

She then took the plane and threw it to the floor.

"It doesn't really fly, only pretend."

After watching "Big Hero 6" again today, Madelyn was randomly singing to herself, "We could be mortals...." (Actual lyric is "We could be immortals") She also continued her trend of a million questions after watching a movie.

Her "informercial" while playing in the bath:

"If we mix this water up, we get clorax. That can be used to clean walls! And not just walls, but people, too!"
