Tired much?

A lot of play in the new play house.

Poppa raised the slide so it's super fast.

Like almost too fast.

We keep the extra dog bed at the bottom to cushion their landing.

E really wants to read 

so I have worked double time on her letters and sounds.

She picks up numbers easily 

and has a good attitude about letters being a little difficult.

Emily realized that she is a little "dult" (adult).

Everything I do, she does...almost.

Locking and unlocking the front door.

Loading and unloading the dish washer.

Mopping the floor.

But she surprised me when she wanted to pump gas.

So I talked her through it and she did it!

Even swiping the credit card.

Her recent independence and confidence is impressive

but my favorite realization about her this summer 

is her kindness towards others.
