During devotions last night, the subject of being a mama came up. A thought for a moment and said "When I have babies, I will feed them. I will pray with them. And I will buy them a toothbrush and brush their teeth."
At ballet today, the teacher asked if anyone knew what hot lava was. A's hand shot up and she said "Yes! There's this one level where if he falls in it burns his bottom!!" The teacher looked at me quizzically and I said "she plays Super Mario Bros with her daddy..."
A is playing CrossFit with her imaginary friends. She is leading them through a WOD around our living room and kitchen.
A's prayer tonight: Thank you for your heart of love, so I can love my mama. I love my daddy. I love my sister. And I love Sorka and Belle.

A has managed to accidentally lock herself in the bathroom twice today.
W put her pants on herself - sure they're inside out and backwards, but hey, who cares?

Poor A - she's old enough to articulate her nightmares now. She came upstairs at 3:00am crying "Mama, I don't want our house to get knocked over!"

The girls are wearing tutus and having an imaginary picnic at their imaginary tent.
Yesterday at ballet A said: I'm not very big, but I am growing!

My two year old just whacked me in the face with a vtech game console. The stabbing pain in my temple and swollen eye attest to the fact that we should perhaps be looking into baseball for her. Maybe hockey would be a better fit. Or professional wrestling.
W just looked at her red painted toes and said "I have such cuuuuutttee nails!"

So tired. Up most of the night with a sick little girl. Good thing she finally fell asleep, we were running out of clean bedding options. It hurts my heart to hear a sad little voice say over and over "Mama, help me, I threw up"

Woah. Looks like this is going to be an interesting day, now W has the stomach flu too. A finally fell asleep, I don't think she's slept this late since she was a newborn.

I get asked on almost a daily basis now if the girls are twins. Weird.

A just sang me "Happy Mother's Day" to the tune of Happy Birthday! Then W sang me Happy Birthday. I am so blessed to be the mama of two sweet little girls!

Random facts A shared with her ballet class today: "I have a dog named Sorka who is mostly white", "My Mama can make pizza", "Teacher Annie, Teacher Annie, I have something to tell you: two fives make ten", "It's getting dark in here, because the clouds are in front of the sun." It's like she is truly unable to refrain from talking for 30 minutes...

I think W missed me - she wants me to hold her like a baby and feed her the sippy cup like a bottle.
