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.

Writing these days!

 
This is what Ella's writing looks like these days :-)  To translate in case you need it, it says "Ella To:Mom  Ella To: Dad  Ella To: Hannah Ella To: Christopher Ella To: Mom Ella To: Dad"
She usually has a "To: Sadie" in every paper also :-)  She has memorized all the names except Christopher which she copies from a 3x5 card she had us write it on months ago.  At the bottom is a picture, in very accurate height order of our family and her cousins' family.  I love this stage!  We never told her to write/draw like this or even suggested the height order or labeling people with their first initial so it's fun to see what she comes up with! She mass produces art work and "writings" at this stage and even made a book last week totally on her own and surprised us with it-go Ella go!
