I've missed blogging about Sweet Pea and Sugar Lump. There's so much to share, I may not be able to catch you up on all the great moments. But I would love to try.
They have both grown and matured by leaps and bounds. They make us laugh and make us wonder. We find these girls so fascinating.
This past year for the girls has gotten more complex socially. R has been through a lot with girls at school, sometimes friends, sometimes enemies (we call them frenemies). But, most of those relationships are now settling and solidifying into good friendships. Little F has learned "Mine!" at daycare and rules like "no pushing! Alessandro!". And, again for F and her toddler friends, many moments are full of compassion and caring. For example, there is a lot of concern over the youngest of their group and each seems to take turns in making sure she's not left behind when they're setting off for the gym or the playground.
These girls sure love each other and are pretty great together.
The videos include 1) R at her violin recital with P accompanying and 2) F playing her violin--still too big--and insisting that P play the piano for her.
With much joy,
enjoy!
