Part of what I love about the girls' names is that they were both popular 100 years ago and many people with those names are now great-grandmas. Both names evoke a vision for me of sweet old ladies rocking away together on a porch. I pray Ella and Sadie will live meaningful lives full of love and will be enjoying each other on a front porch somewhere many years from now.

End of Preschool Year 2!

Ella is finished with preschool for the year! She did really well this year in her class of 14 and bonded much more than last year with the kids in her class. There was more clique-ishness in a class of 3 and 4 year olds than I would have liked/expected but hopefully Ella is learning some valuable lessons about how to handle that. A few weeks ago her class sent home inviations for a "Mother's Day Garden Party" to all the moms and we got to join them for a fun day at school complete with refrshments they made themselves, bouquets of paper flowers, a special song, and some beautiful artwork they'd made for us. It was a lot of fun!



Ella and her girlfriends :-)

    So cute.

    But I think my favorite kid is the boy with his arms crossed in the pic of the kids singing. That was SO Christopher about a year ago.
