Stop, Drop and Roll

Dear Sawyer,

Cute things you did today:

-We were at Ellie's house this afternoon for a play date and Ellie's bedroom faces the LIRR tracks, so a train zoomed by every several minutes. You missed seeing the first few trains because they were already gone by the time you waded through the mountains of toys all over the floor to get to the window. When you finally did see a train, you were so excited! And I mean, REALLY excited! You said, "I saw train! I saw train! Let me tell the guys!" The "guys" were JieJie and Ellie and her two sisters, who were playing the living room. You ran out to the living room, pointed excitedly to your chest and exclaimed, "I saw train! I saw train!" Your eyes were so wide and your smile was so big and it was so adorable!

-When we first moved into our house, I decorated your room with Snoopy wall decals. You have kind of outgrown Snoopy, though (*sniff sniff), so I put up new Thomas the Tank Engine decals last week. While you were in your room by yourself, you peeled a few of them off and rolled them into a ball. And you described this action to me by laying down on your mat, rolling back and forth across it and then getting up and saying, "I roll them. I roll them into a ball." Thanks for the bonus visual, sweetie!

Love,
Mom
