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.

Yo-Yo

Sadie loves "yo-yo" (yogurt) and also loves sneaking over when the refrigerator is open and opening up the bottom drawer where the ypgurt lives.  For a week or so she'd been taking out the yogurts and making a tower 3 or 4 tall.  She enjoyed the little game and I was honestly quite impressed with her tower-building abilities (Ella never did that at 16 months).  Also, it was also usually a welcome distraction from pulling at my knees while I tried to cook or clean in the kitchen.  Well, a few days ago, I turned around and realized her satsifaction with just building towers has faded...
