Little babies in little bellies.

Magdelana has been so cute today. Still into Frankenstinker, the mythical creature she joyfully invented and references with a mix of reference and effervescent smirk.

She told me out of the clear blue this evening:

Thank you for lunch today, Dodi.

Dodi being the moniker she uses in reference to me, her dad.
Do I love it?
The answer is yes.

And prayed this evening, unprompted:

Dear God,

Thank you for Mama to feel better,
and little baby in Mommy's tummy to feel better,
and Magga,
and Frankenstinker,
and the rabbit in the hallway,
and for the food.

Amen.

We played with LEGO blocks all morning. Built a tower to the sky, beautifully colour-coordinated. Using teamwork, of course.

Two cheers for gratitude and for working together.

Becca is full into the tired, gagging, minimal appetite phase. Poor girl.
