And so it begins...

Today Ashlyn, (who is only 5) asked, "What's a boyfriend?"

Needless to say, I almost choked and laughed all at the same time. Emily explained in a very generic and broad manner as to what a boyfriend was, and finally summed it all up with, "You're too young to be thinking about a boyfriend."

Ashlyn's response, "Well... I'm thinking about it!"

All Tied Up

Well, tonight was a big night. Ashlyn has learned how to tie her shoes.

There's Something Under the Bed!

Ok, side note so this will make sense. I have to have the head of our bed raised a little because of my occasional bouts of acid reflux when I am sleeping. It is sitting on two 3"x4" blocks and is raised about 3" off the floor. Not very much, but it does seem to help and doesn't seem to bother Emily. Plus we don't end up sliding off the end of the bed.

Anyways...

Ashlyn was in our room on our bed tonight watching a movie and drawing when she shouted for us to come in there. I opened the door and asked what was wrong. She said, "I think there is a mouse under the bed because it just dropped down!"
