Daughter Duo

Well lets see, I am sure there must be plenty to tell but just no time to tell it. The biggest thing for the last week has been going to the park. Our park here recently had a long overdue upgrade on the playground equipment. You now have to plan when you go carefully because there are tons of kids there. It is funny how Evelyn and her friends have come home from school each day saying, “Mom, so-and-so is going to the park today and I told them I would be there too.” Who can rebuff that one when it would disappoint a friend? We have now been five times in one week and I am sure there will be pleading again. Evelyn is a monkey anyway and is fun to watch. Emelia is our brave one. She will try anything even if her skill level is not there yet. We have to watch her like a hawk. She did do really well on the big slides on our last visit. We timed that one where it was not overwhelming with big kids. Naturally I did not have the camera. Her face was priceless with the accomplishment. The other events of the week included Emelia going to preschool for two mornings. All of our grandparent caretakers have been on a trip this week. Emelia loved the idea of “Hui Hui school girl” but not the actual experience. She did okay and hopefully will be ready for it in the near future. I think the grandparents have spoiled her but isn’t that what grandparents are for? I need to load pictures from Scott's camera. I did not have many. I thought the one of Emelia giving herself a kiss on our stove was too sweet.
