I blew up some balloons for the kids yesterday and they both had fun throwing them into the air with their hands and batting at them with paddles but...
Walter enjoyed batting at his the most with a baseball bat and...
what Rose E enjoyed the most was drawing a face on hers and dressing it-up. It is fun to see how the same thing can be enjoyed in totally different ways with a boy and a girl! It has been funny to listen to Rose E lately as she is picking-up a lot of Walter's phrases too. Sometimes if I ask Walter to do something when he wants to be building with blocks or laying train track he will say "I'm too busy (in a little protest)" so last weekend I was trying to get Rose E to eat her meat at the supper table and she said "no I'm too busy to eat the ham." Then today she dumped out a 250 set of dominoes all over the floor and when I asked her to help me pick them up, at first she helped ,and then she got tired of it so she said "I'm too full" (that's what Walter says when he is done eating). Such a ham!
The kids are loving watching all of the spring flowers in our neighborhood bloom and are identifying quiet a few (even Rose E is pointing out tulip now) and whenever I do anything to our gardens Walter is right there as curious as could be, so the other day when I thinned out one of the gardens and transplanted some plants from one spot to another Walter asked what I was doing and I said I am digging out a bulb, he looked at me with a curious look and said "a light bulb?!?
