Little ones with big ideas!

Walter got a new toy and all I can say is thumbs up to leap frog! It has been helping him to sound out small words and now he pretty much knows his upper and lower case sounds along with each letter. It's been so much fun and has sparked his interest more into writing them too. This kids wheels are always turning! Tonight on our walk we walked past an empty house and he said to us "some day I'm gonna get all the ladders from peoples houses that aren't using them and build train tracks on them all the way up to the houses in the sky." I said whose house is up there and he said "Jesus's." The things they think they can do at this age. I remember as a kid thinking that my sisters and I where going to dig a hole leading all the way to China in our sandbox!

Little miss Rose E is growing up before our eyes too! Lately when I say something to her she'll respond with "oh" or "okay" and if she accidentally bumps into me she says "sorry" and gives me a kiss. She is little miss independent though! Whenever I announce that we are doing something (everything from eating to brushing her teeth or going somewhere) she runs away and says "I hiding." On the other hand though I have never seen a child smile so much as this one.
