Norman made her this Duplo tower later Wednesday night. It had exactly 100 Duplos. He showed it to her Thursday morning, and they counted the Duplos by tens, then put it back together, then knocked it over spectacularly, of course.
Mario Kart.
They went to Target, and he bought her a calculator, which she had been asking for. She had fun seeing what it could do until she got frustrated with it. But what's new? And of course I did the only decent thing and showed her that you can spell "hello" with it upside down.
We read a book about mail carriers.
Today, more Mario Kart. She worked hard and under Norman's coaching, finally unlocked something she'd been trying to unlock for a while. She drew a picture of one of the characters.
[I'm not sure what's happening here, but she likes to try to tell whole stories with just pictures and arrows. I feel maybe Blue's Clues is behind this.]
She's been a bit obsessed with handing out her play money (bills and coins). Not sure what that's all about.
She watched a Blue's Room DVD about Blue getting her baby brother.
Currently trying to get her decide between ice skating and karate lessons for this upcoming semester. I think she's leaning toward skating.
I read her a (pretty boring and useless) book about adoptive families before bed. She noted that it was boring and useless, so I showed her another, better one, which she read part of before it was time for bed.
