Morgan ate seconds on whole wheat cinnamon toast and all of her grapes at breakfast. At lunch she ate a bite of chicken and canned cherries, all of her dinner roll and mashed potatoes.
Morgan watched intently as Kenzie started lining books up in the big window sill, kind of using it as a type of display. She then went over and started helping her on the other side. Pretty soon all of the bigger kiddos were doing it, with Peyton and Thomas trying to "help" also without much appreciation.
Morgan was kind of picking at the kiddos for a while today (grabbing, trying to take toys, pushing...). We gave her multiple reminders and helped the kiddos move away from here, but she then started trying to follow them and do it. At that point we had to play in one of the back rooms for about 5 minutes. She did a GREAT job of remembering to listen, be a good friend and be gentle after that!
It cracks me up how much the children this age make concrete associations. Every time Morgan sees a star in a book, poster or anything, she immediately breaks out into singing "Twinkle, twinkle little star". Today she must have started the song at least 3 times. Each time she had 4-5 kiddos singing with her by the end of the song. It is really cute!
I read them the book "Pussy cat, Pussy cat..." this morning. When I got to the part in the rhyme where "she frightened a little mouse under her chair", Morgan stuck out her belly and in her deep voice said, "No! Stinking mouse!" : ) That Gary! He teaches them all kind of great words and phrases! : )
