Daughter Duo

Another week has passed. The time does fly by. I intended to post early on but I'll just give a quick recap. We started with the kickoff of PRCC's Centennial Celebration with a parade through town and a picnic at the school following. It was a nice change of pace but quite a warm September day. Evie's school came out for the parade and were on the sunny side of the street for too long, poor babies. We were across from Evelyn on the shady side. Emelia entertained herself with Scott's lens cap during the wait. She also enjoyed her moon pie as we cooled off in the office building where I work. Evelyn is now taking dance and is excited about it. Monday was her first day but she has been looking forward her next dance class. She is quite creative with what she comes up with on her easel. I am very proud of both girls with some of their accomplishments this week. Emelia has only worn pull ups at night since Wednesday. I think we finally hit a milestone with the potty training. Emelia was napping yesterday and I decided to get out some Dick and Jane books we had for Evelyn. Those of you who are old enough know about Dick and Jane. Anyway, Evelyn has been doing well with her letter sounds and a few sight words. Dick and Jane are such a memory to me in those early days of reading. I had to help her just a bit but we were so pleased. Her face just lit up when she realized she was reading all by herself. Watching your little one learn is so much fun and truly amazing.
