Mothering Emma Kate and Jack…
Emma Kate’s school had a fiction parade this morning. Her class dressed as characters from various fairy tales. Emma Kate went as Little Red Riding Hood (minus the red hood which remained in her basket!).

Today, Jack and I enjoyed a visit with Evelyn and Nickolas. The boys enjoyed playing inside and out; despite the lack of nap for both, they played well and maintained good spirits into the early afternoon. We look forward to playing again soon!

Jack had a playdate this morning with his friend, Aidan. The boys were so cute playing… they carried on little conversations and actually played together. We fully anticipated that they would simply engage in parallel (side-by-side) play. Each day I am amazed at how quickly my kids are growing.
