First there was Ms. Cutie whom was Katie’s first lovey.  Now for little Hannah there is Ms. Fanny.  Ms. Cutie’s sister.  Oddly enough both girls have taken to them.  Although Hannah has her blanky’s too.   But she loves Ms. Fanny.  She feeds her, hugs her and sleeps with her.  Nothing like a best friend.  

Homework

Katie was playing outside with one of the neighbor kids whom is lobbying for a babysitting position. A short time later the neighbor girl had to go inside to do her homework.  While walking home  Katie announced she had to do her homework too.  As we enter the house I start to go to the table to make some imaginary homework like writing her name or something when she very clearly states “And I want to do it myself. I don’t want you to help me.”  So I hang back and wait for her to call me.  I realize shortly afterwards she is sweeping the kitchen floor! ha ha!  I guess that IS home work!  

Hannah and the Jump Rope

Ah my little Hannah.  She SO wants to be just like her big sister.  Katie was furiously trying to learn how to jump rope.  We had a few touch and go moments of frustration but she finally got it and was starting to really go.  Then Hannah decided to get into the action. I have never laughed so hard.  She jumped right on the rope looked at me and started clapping and laughing for herself.   Of course Katie was baffled we were going along with it clapping along with her being she didn’t ACTUALLY jump the rope.
