Such a Sweet Girl

Elena is fabulously awesome. Her reading is coming along really well. She's starting to read parts of bigger stories like Alice in Wonderland and Stuart Little, all by herself. She wants to read Harry Potter, too, but keeps trying to start with the second one. We've told her that as soon as Mom and Dad finish that one we'll start reading it with her.

The other shirt I made.

While cleaning out my closet, the other day, I found a box with a bunch of jewelry I'd worn in middle school. Elena immediately asked if she could have it, and I didn't see why not.


She's been asking me for a haircut for a while, I guess because Joseph got a trim the other day before pictures. I got Daddy to agree to a trim for her, too. No pictures yet, since I did it right when she got out of the bath, this morning.
