March in the Rain

She:

  • Is really interested in people crying.  Loves to look at the pages where Clifford or Frances cry, and ask what's happening.  We talk about being sad and she immediately counters with 'he's happy now'.  Even though he isn't, and it's obvious.
  • Has been saying 'I'm a little happy'.  
  • Saw a small elderly lady at the grocery store and asked 'What's that little girl doing?'
  • Sat at the dinner table nicely, two nights in a row, without even trying to get up.  Tonight she ate her entire dinner.  Small victories.



It's been raining really hard for a couple days, and it's been light later into the evening, so we've taken a few after-dinner rain walks.  Her favorite new thing is the grates in the street where the water runs down.  On one particular corner, there are FOUR DRAINS and she runs back and forth between them, leaning over, pointing and squinting her eyes to focus.


This week, the Blazers fired their coach.  Tonight as we watched them beat Chicago, I told Scarlett to cheer for the Blazers, she grabbed her red & black knit blanket and shook it in front of the tv and said 'Blazers blanket!  Blazers blanket!'
