After reading stories, Maia was lying on the couch between Valerie and I. The tiniest bit of tickling turned into a bout of continuous giggles. As I was getting ready to teach my preschool lesson on food and nutrition, Maia wanders over and I start asking her to name some favorite foods: Valerie got supplies so that Maia could make Valentine cards for all her friends. She’s been engrossed for the last hour+ putting on foamy stickers and glitter pen decorations as she works through the list of her friends (from memory). Each one has special consideration and I’ve completely ruined it by not taking note at [...] Overhead this morning: Maia wanted to wear her new “play” dress that Grandma Becky recently made for her.

Well, almost always. Sitting at the dinner table Maia and Elise were enjoying the bounty but Stella was refusing to eat them. What? I wondered out loud where Stella had come from…my daughter not eating pancakes? Maia has become just a tiny bit balloon obsessed lately. She loves them, uses them as her babies, names them (which is new) and just wants them with her always. Especially if they happen to be orange. |
