Happy Valentine's Day

Elodie came home from school with two lovely literary works for Valentine’s Day.


I feel peaceful when I’m at home, thinking about candy. I like laying with my blankie.

The Five Senses of Love

By Elodie

Love looks like a movie, like Harry Potter.
Love sounds really loud like a sneeze.
Love smells like hamburgers and barbeques.
Love tastes like blood.
Love feels good like being nice to your sister.

Making Cookies

The pictures are explanation enough.

Visitor

My sister from Turkey, Leanna, visited us this weekend. We LOVED having her here, and the visit went way too quickly. The girls loved tackling Leanna, laughing with her, feeding her Cheerios, and dancing to her Turkish techno.

Skate, Skate Baby

We attended skate night last week with Madeleine and Elodie's elementary school. Amazingly enough, the skating rink looked exactly like the one I attended during elementary school--outdated carpet, duct tape, and all.

All three girls--even little Camille--tried to skate. Camille lasted only a few minutes, Elodie lasted a few more, but Madeleine went all out. It was only her second time on skates, but she did amazingly well and had a great attitude.
