Mercedes and the Girls

Sweet little Mac made this darling little mixed media drawing today.  She found some little plastic stakes that you label plants with, colored them like flower petals, then glued them to a drawing.

She's a sweet one.

Mimi always puts safety first.  Even while eating lunch.

Mac was SO proud after school today.  She passed off all her letters and numbers, upper and lower case, and was then declared an alphabet star.  Crown and all. 

Only kind of a hot day...not hot enough for sprinklers, in my opinion, but then I'm not the one running in them.  The grass in the yard up here is vicious, though.  So the girls put on socks to run through the sprinklers.  My idea, actually, and it was pretty funny.  Mac prefers her knee length crews. 

Mimi goes in for ankle socks.  Really funny. 

We couldn't get her to stop fiddling with the sprinkler, though.  I'll need to find a simple 'flower' sprinkler with no moving parts.

Funny little girls and their funny little quirks.
