Updates at last

It has been too long. They both do so much. Ronin says to me,
"Mommy I have a new freckle on my hand. The sun gave it to me for you to love." Where does he come up with this?

Or last night he says, "Sometimes kids can tell their mommies that they don't like something their mommies made." And I said, "Yes you can always tell me. What don't you like?" And he says, "Your Macaroni and Cheese isn't good." Okay. "I love your chili mommy."

And then there is Autumn. Who says "READY! GO!" And races down the hallway. Or starts to dress Elmo (Melmo) and tells him to "sit down" and "shirt." She runs to get her "shoes" and wants to go "outside" and play nonestop with "chalk" and "balls" and to see the "flowies" even though she can says "flower". She is stubborn and passionate. She raised her hand to me yesterday when she wanted more blueberries and stomped her foot. Not being able to hold her Elmo while she eats is a great offense.

And Ronin loves her although I see more jealousy. He wants to hide her Elmo from time to time. But if she is crying he will "read her a story or sing her a song" to help calm her down.

She adores Ronin the most. He is her favorite person in the world.
