We did take some bath pictures of Hallie early this week, but that post will have to wait a little while at least. Erin continues to keep me motivated with funny/sweet stories of our kids via email. Here are three more short stories:
#1 As we've previously mentioned, Will looks out for Hallie - at least while they're at school - like it's his job. Last week their classrooms were outside together, and while Will was playing on the play structure with friends, Hallie got her finger stuck between two slats of the picnic table. She cried out (mostly in frustration - she wasn't really hurt), and when Will heard Hallie's cries he ran to her from across the play area. After hugging Hallie, he walked up to her teacher and asked/demanded to know, "Why is she crying?!". Miss Aubrey explained to Will that Hallie had pinched her finger, but Will didn't believe her - he replied, "I think she's cold. Button her coat.". While Miss Aubrey buttoned Hallie's coat (Miss Aubrey told me that Will's "order" was just too cute not to follow) Will followed up his first instruction with, "But don't button the top one, because that might make her uncomfortable.". #2 Will: "Where did that school come from?" Erin: "Construction workers built the school with cement, bricks, and wood." Will: "No, I think God built it." #3 The word "sister" came up on a reading flash card, and "sister" is not a word Will immediately recognizes. He had trouble sounding it out, so I tried giving him a hint. Erin: "Think about Hallie..." Will: "Huh?" Erin: "What is Hallie to you?" Will: "Nice?" |
