Manners!

My friend Miss Sara brought Lila home from school today.  When I walked out to get her, she stood up in Miss Sara's van while looking her straight in the eye and said, "Thanks for driving me home in your car."  Her words weren't in the proper order and I don't know exactly how they came out.  But I do know that she was trying to say the above without any prompting from me.  I am thrilled that she recognized the need for a proper thank you!

Getting Older

On the way to school this morning, Savannah asked me if I remembered how she used to take Santa gifts.  I told her I did and that I always thought it was so sweet.  She responded with, "I think I am getting a little too old to do those kind of things now."

Two minutes later she told me that she wasn't sure that she wanted to have kids.  "I think I would just rather live with you and daddy when I grow up."

She is getting older but she isn't ready to fly the nest just yet.
