We had a hail storm today. I took Evie outside to see and hear it and she was super excited. She then went into her room to ‘evacuate’ everyone to be sure they were all in a safe place.

Los Angeles
Man on TV talks about Los Angeles. Evie says:
“Hey, Los Angeles is where the Kings are from!”
Fancerific
Evie picked out her own outfit for the first time. She’s got Nemo chonies, Dory sox, pink chucks to match the hearts on her shirt, purple pants cuz that’s Mama’s favorite color and a headband with a flower so she’d be ‘fancerific!’
On The Top
When we are driving on the freeway, Evie always talks about being ‘on the top’. I guess she looks out the window and can look down off the side of the freeway and starts yelling:
“We’re ‘on the top, we’re on the top.”
She did that again today but then asked if we were actually on the top. I said not anymore so she starts yelling:
“We’re on the down, we’re on the down!”
My Master Builder
Evie has really been coming up with quite the creations lately. Today at Story Time they had play time with various building blocks. She picked these fish things that had holes on fours side for joining together and came up with this.
My Robot Friend
Evie made this all by herself.
Guests
Yesterday some guests were here and they couldn’t come in because they were on their way to visit someone who Dad said was ‘deathly’ allergic to cats. Today Evie decided to set the table for her ‘guests’ who were ‘magically’ allergic to cats. Since the table was ‘covered with cat fur’, she put a cloth on it first, set it with plates and cups and ‘placemats’ (cards from her Bingo game) and then built a cake (out of blocks) that she put in the center. Quite a fancy 3 layer cake, I might add. If you look closely, there is an orange dot on top of the cake. That is the ‘lit’ candle (which is actually lava from a playset volcano). Pretty fantastic.
Then she told me she lit the candle with this very special candle lighter (a cocktail stir stick) that she got from her kids great, great grandma.
What an imagination!

Prepared For Nature
Evie – “Next time we go on our nature walks I’m gonna take my nature hat, my binoculars and my magnifying glass so we will be repaired for nature.”
Nana – “I think you mean prepared.”
Evie – Yeah, preprared.”
Africa
Evie – “I don’t want to go to Africa. It’s very wild there and I’m too little to be eaten by a lion!”
