Hadley has been rather delightful lately. It is like the fog of the 3s has lifted to reveal a child we not only love but actually like.
How many mini muffins would you like? One or two?
Five!
========================================
Hadley, after already consuming her quota of three cookies, preyed upon her baby brother and yet managed to come out as the selfless one.
“Mommy, look!
“What is it, Hadley?”
“I broke Bode’s cookie in half. And look at us now. We are sharing!”
=================================
As we drove by Colorado University recently, I explained to Hadley about college life. Well, not that side of college life. After I felt that she had a firm grasp of what would be expected of her academic future, I queried:
“What do you want to be when you grow up, Hadley?”
“A princess!”
Interesting. Do you have a back-up plan if the princess gig doesn’t pan out?”
“Umm, a queen?”
