I've overheard several conversations in my past about how supremely satisfying it is when your children play well together. I had a glimpse of that this morning.
Henry is sitting up pretty well these days and he loves the new vantage point. He loves watching Grace. Grace notices the attention and hams it up.
She danced, laughed and jumped for him and he beamed back at her. I watched them for awhile without needing to save Henry or entertain Grace. They were there for each other! It was really sweet.
Today was a pretty typical day. We usually spend a good hour at least playing on my bed at some point. In the afternoon we made popcorn for our afternoon snack. We all love watching it pop.
Notice Grace has a tassel in her hand above? Scott got his graduation robes last week and the tassel has been a daily toy since then. Today she held one of the strings taut and plucked it while singing in a low tone "doo be do be doo wa, doo be do be doo wa." Then she told me she was making music with the string. Her creativity and music inclinations make me happy.
For our outing today we went to a
Map store off State street that we drive by every day. It was a fun place with lots of toys, teaching aids and maps. We came home with a large laminated U.S. map and a huge floor puzzle.
It's been a fun day!

Isn't it great when the older sister decides that it's fun to play with the baby rather than smother him? I can take showers in peace these days:)
