38 Months Old

Hannah is turning into such a big girl.  Here's what she's up to:

*She has started making up songs about anything and everything.  Most recently, I've heard her singing about her baby and the sky.

*She loves to sing SOLO.  Many times when I start to sing with her, she will demand that I stop so that she can continue by herself.

*She loves Children and Worship at church and comes home singing new songs like Fishers of Men and The BIBLE.  I love that she is learning songs that I grew up singing in Sunday School!

*Her favorite color continues to be pink.

*She is getting better at cutting with scissors and enjoys cutting and glueing.

*She is quite independent.  When she makes up her mind, it is very difficult, if not impossible to change it.  I'm hoping that being strong-willed will be a positive characteristic when she's older, although at this stage of the game, it can be very challenging. 

*She insists on buckling herself into her carseat.  This can make loading up the car a very long process.

*She is a great shopper.  When I take her clothes shopping with me, she enjoys playing dress-up and being a princess in the mirror.  She also is very helpful at the when shopping for groceries, as she carries the basket of goods at the bread store and farmers market and puts things in the cart at the grocery store.  This actually is quite helpful when I have my hands full with Jack.

*Every reference to things that occurred in the past, whether it happened yesterday or last year is "last summer."

*She says grace every night at dinner, and it's always the same - "Dear Jesus, thank you for Jacob and Claire.  Amen."
