Story time at the library. Coincidentally it was vehicle-themed. Got her (among other things) a Cars easy reader book, the movie (again, because they didn't have a copy of the second one), and a copy of Fly Away Home. She also played some alphabet and number computer games there.
Came home and played outside while Norman did yard work. He put some dirt down inside her playhouse to make the floor more even, so she helped by evening it out with one of her little shovels. She made a bird's nest.
Then she wanted me to turn on the hose so she could wash the grass and dirt off the outside of her house. We did that and also sprayed down the lawn chairs. Then she jumped in the mud puddle she made. (My internal mantra: "Children -- hand wash, towel dry. No big deal.") Then I came inside, and I think she played in more mud and also rode her bike for a while.
She has decided that the realistic-drawing magnets that we have on the fridge of a frog and a pig are Kermit and Miss Piggy.
We watched Fly Away Home together. She had lots of questions.
Read to herself in her play room.
Blocks after dinner.
Tomorrow is her birthday!
