Dads

Millie: why are we at JBU?

Me: we are picking up your Dad. 

Millie: Which Dad?

Me: Your Dad

Millie: We are picking up my stepdad?

Me: Ummm, you don't have a stepdad. 

Millie: Oh, yeah. 

Baby Birds

We've been watching a robin's nest and four eggs for the last couple weeks. To the children's great delight, two of the baby birds hatched last night. When we came home from running some errands this afternoon, we were sad to see that one of the baby birds had died. Millie melted my heart when she looked up at me with deep eyes and said, "This is so sad. We lubbed those baby birds with all our hearts." Precious girl.
