Not a day goes by when you don’t pick up a particuar leaf or two or three – just for me. Carefully selected, greatly appreciated. I so love that about you. I treasure these gifts. I am so grateful that you treasure God’s amazing creation as much as me.

I don’t remember if I shared this with you or not, but a couple months back you talked me into postponing dinner to lay on our backs in the grass and watch the clouds roll by. What an incredible experience… Thank you!!

A couple nights ago at school when I was picking you up you said again, “Mama, lay on the ground and watch the clouds with me.” We rolled around and giggled and watched the clouds. I am so grateful for the perspective you bring to my life. You change my world like no other…

You and I signed up to take Garth Fagan’s dance workshop called Jonkanoo for the 4 Wednesday’s of October. They were held at your school. We got to make masks, play interesting instruments and dance! You are such an incredible dancer! Last week, they asked for volunteers to come into the circle of about 22 kids, and make up your own dance that we would follow. Guess who was the 2nd volunteer!! YOU!! You did a Jonkanoo dance step first (the Jonkanoo march) and then you made up your own step – the frog. Everyone enjoyed following your lead. I was so proud of you!. How brave. There are about 4 four-year olds in the class, and everyone else is older. Here are some pictures:
