Catechism Questions 1-10

Mommy's been working with me on these for the last year, and lately I've really started liking them! I ask to do them and am learning a new one every week, sometimes more.

The Fairy in my Garden

Eowyn's been more excited to play with her dress-up clothes than ever-- I guess she's growing into them.  She usually is a princess, sometimes a fairy, sometimes both at once.  Even as a sushi-cooking, baby-rocking, cleaning mama she prefers to wear her favorite pink "p'incess 'kirt."

"Thank You for Nina, My Favorite Part..."

I love living so close to Nina & GB-- I get to see them all the time!  Nina usually makes me smoothies, and keeps a stash of strawberries for me.  She has set up a cool area for me to play at her house, and I know where all the toys are.  Sometimes she comes over to watch me at my house, too, and she is a whiz with sidewalk chalk.  We made a path, and we hopped, skipped, and walked on it.  Best of all was when she spun me around!!

(the title comes from one of Eowyn's recent prayers)

Monkeyin Around our Neighborhood Park

I love my "giraffe dress" from Grams and my new "favorite soft shoes" Mom picked up on consignment for $1.  I love the swings most of all, but Mom has to keep taking breaks from pushing me-- I even tried out the big girl ones!  Usually cautious, I am getting braver since I've come to this park a few times; I've tried out the climbing gym and one of the slides!

Pigtails!

Another milestone achieved:  today Mommy put my hair into two true-blue pigtails (or as I call them, "tails.").  I like them a lot, and everyone says I look cute.  Don't I always?
