Well, the Ranger has been a huge hit in Walter's book! He got the first ride in it yesterday after getting it from the dealership. He was so cute showing it to me when they pulled-up in the driveway. He walked me around the machine and in detail told me about every part. Tonight they also went for a ride and he couldn't wait to tell me about everything they saw. I also took this picture of the kids standing by our tree in bloom , it looks so pretty right now(Rose E's been saying "tree"). You can see our little vegetable garden to the left too. Walter has been helping me water it and checking on it's progress. When Rose E sees it she says "plant?" You can't really see, but the poles in the background on the street have American flags on them. As soon as they where put up last week Walter noticed and now everyday he has been saying "is today July?" He's anxious about the 4th I guess! They are starting construction on our road tomorrow. Tonight on our walk Rose E noticed all of the cones, barrels and words spray painted on the road. I had to laugh because she kept pointing to them and saying "Uh oh" "no, no, no." Such a character! She has been saying "see" for everything lately too. Yesterday we where driving and her hat went down over her eyes she started to protest so I said "push it back up" she then pushed it out of her eyes and then excitedly said "see." Yesterday she also took her first step without holding on at Papa and Grandma's house (she has been standing on her own for a long time and walks holding onto things but hasn't yet got daring enough to take steps on her own). Watch out now! Today she had fun too playing with a magnetic farm leap frog toy. Before putting the sheep and pig in it she pointed to them and said "sheep", "pig." Then Walter asked me how to spell those words with his letter leap frog toy. We spelled out several. Earlier today it was cute because out of the blue Walter said "look Mama I'm praying " I said "what are you saying in your prayer?" He said "I love you Jesus and God." Lately at night when he prays his list of people to pray for has been getting pretty long, I love it. I didn't mention it but the other day Walter broke out in hives again and he hadn't had strawberries. Both times where outside after picking a dandelion so I am wondering if that is the culprit. Anyway, yesterday we had playgroup in the park and after seeing every dandelion Rose E would tell Walter "No, no" (don't touch)! Oh we also have had our caterpillars that we ordered for a few days. Walter has been having fun watching there progress everyday. They have tripled in size since they arrived.
