Evelyn has just been a blast lately. She's been coming up with the funniest games. When Michael tipped our couch over and turned it into a cave, Evelyn called it "The Cave of Wonders" and demanded that daddy play the alligator pillow who was trying to eat her. Michael is such a good sport and can play on the floor with her for hours....I don't know how he does it, but somehow he finds the energy, and she adores him.
The point of this next game is to hit the ball with a book, while standing on the pillow, of course. It simply cannot be done without the pillow. Evelyn hits the ball every time Daddy throws it. Of course, when Mommy throws it, she misses, because mommy hasn't figured out quite how to throw it correctly. And Evelyn glares at me in a "What's wrong with you, can't you do this simple thing?" kind of way.
Last week we took Evelyn to a Princess Party at the local book store. They gave her a pretty princess crown and ring and she made a bracelet, colored a picture, and ate a princess cupcake. But she never quite felt comfortable as a princess...
Aaah.....that's better!
