The Amelia and Daphne Blog

Thank yous

Coming soon to a mailbox near you…here is Daphne working diligently on her birthday present thank you notes!  She and I made a pile of (you guessed it) Red Birthday Cake cards.  Most of them have three red candles glued to the card.

A stray picture that makes me laugh.  The girls constructed a tent community on Saturday.  Daphne’s tent was the real tent, and Amelia’s was the table covered with the sheet.  They linked their tents with the tunnel.

The great stories for today.  Daphne spent much of the weekend in underpants.  Being able to wear them has become important to her.  Today Daphne had two potty successes (hip-hip-hooray!), which is two more than most days.  She’s figuring it out.  Then at bed time, Amelia said “I have an idea, I bet I could read ‘A Fly Went By’!”.  OK, sounds good to me.  She read the first 21 pages and we’ll finish the rest tomorrow.  Wow, a stunner from both of them today, really.

    That’s genius. We have a tent and a tunnel and have made forts but for some reason I haven’t thought to make a whole city. And it’s supposed to rain this weekend too.

    Daphne looks quite the lady in her little red dress!

    I love the little warren. They could hide out there forever!
