our three
















I realized today that I hadn't taken a good photo of all three kids together since Thomas was a month old! Oh how the time flies. Thomas went for his first canoe ride this week, learned to sit up and started eating Cheerios!

Ella has only 4 days left of 1st grade. Tomorrow, she's the "Beary Royal Reader" at school. As she was practicing tonight, I found myself in awe of how far she's come in her reading this year!

Claire wore her favorite tye-dye skirt and t-shirt to preschool today and a rainbow silk headband with long ribbons on it. She put the headband on herself, so it looked a bit odd to say the least:) Her teacher said, "Claire, did you do your hair again today?" She proudly said, "Yes!" and proceeded to play with her buddies. Teacher Rhonda and I reflected on Claire's "flair for fashion." I laughed as she said Claire reminded her of "Punky Brewster." Ha! She was riding her bike after school and got her skirt completely tangled in the wheels. So much, in fact, she had to take her skirt off so Tom could get it free! The hazards of wearing a skirt while riding bike... I've tried to teach her how to roll her waist up for "safe skirting" on the bike. She came upstairs in her underwear and said, "I was so embarrassed, mom!"
