Yesterday, we were walking into the house, and looking at our chalk drawings from the day before. I had drawn my standards: a flower, a baby, and a hopscotch. I asked Mari to find the baby, and she walked over to it saying "Der-she-is". Then we went to the hopscotch and I went over the numbers (1-20) with Calli a couple times. She is great up to 14 - but then misses a few. Calli and I headed to the door, but Mari stopped. I went back to her and she points at the three-square and says clear as day "Three, Three". I'm sure it was only a coincidence, but still!!!
Then tonight, I was nursing Mari, and Calli was on the bed with us. She was stroking Mari's head and back. I was about to tell her not to touch Mari, but thought since Mari didn't seem to mind - I'd let it go. So I just smiled at Calli. And Calli says in a quiet voice, so as not to disturb Mari, "I really love that she's my sister." I almost cried it was so sweet!
Thank you God for tender, and possibly intelligent girls!
