A couple of funny stories. I have plenty of videos to upload. I just got a monitor from my dad, so my laptop, which has display issues, will become a desktop here pretty soon.

On Sunday, Jojo and I were at Subway. A little girl a few booths over started crying. She asked me, "Is that girl crying because her mommy said no?" "I don't know," I said. Her reply: "When mommy says no, Sis only gets mad."

Tonight I was singing the ABC song with her as we read Alphabet Rescue. I sang it, and she held her hand sideways across her lips like she was telling me a secret and said softly, "You have to sing it better!" The song apparently ends with "Next time I will sing to you" instead of "next time won't you sing with me."

Jojo got her first knee scrape when she went to the park with mom Sunday night. She's worn her first band-aid the last few days. I had to tell her her knee wasn't bad, and I think I've convinced her it'll get better.

She loves Goldilocks and the three bears and has the version we read down so well she corrects me if I don't say it right. Most of the time I repeat it without the book, but she reminds me that Goldilocks "ate the porridge all up" the chair didn't just break - it "broke into little pieces," and the little bear's bed is not a bed but a crib.

She is a very observant little girl. I am amazed at how well she thinks - not just remembers, but seems to take the time to reason things out.
