Lately, Berkley has been saying the most creative, cutest little "ideas." Her latest thing is to say in her MOST, VERY expressive little voice (with her eyes as big as blueberries, " MOMMY, I KNOW!! I HAVE AN IDEA!!" And then I just wait with a smile in my face, in great anticipation of her "great idea." I must say for a little one that's just turned three she has a great, creative, little mind.
So, one of her latest ideas last week, when we had been having quite a bit of rain was, "Mommy, I know....we could fly in up in a BIG airplane and glue the clouds together and then it wouldn't rain anymore."
She's always been very observant, keenly aware of her surroundings. She's aware of people, their feelings, situations...just very intune and on top of what's going on. She reasons very well and likes to "understand" things.
A few days ago, I had put both Major and Berkley in their carseats, buckled myself up and then put the car in reverse when from the backseat I heard, "Mommy, I don't want this gum" anymore. Well, since we've gotten out new car, I've REALLY tried hard not to let any trash pile up. So, as I backed up the car I quietly rolled down the window and tossed her gum out, hoping she was distracted with something else. About one minute later as we were driving down the alley she asked, "So, Mommy did you throw the gum out the window so that the squirrels could eat it?" "Uhhh???? Yeah!," I quickly replied. It went against my teaching her not to liter (okay and not telling the truth), but for some reason I thought I'd sneak that one past her. But, she smiled as she thought about the squirrels being able to chew her bubble gum. "Maybe they will try to blow bubbles!!," she added "Maybe, they will Berkley," I said with a grin. We both drove down the road with a funny image of a brown squirrel, blowing a big, pink bubble with ABC bubblegum!
Never a dull moment!! Not with these two little sweet peas!

I haven't been reading the blogs very often but as I was scanning the blogs, I noticed you had some updates, cute things about my two adorable great-grandchildren. I know your life on a daily basis has to be filled with cute and exciting things. Berkley really comes up with some very intellegent observations and such a sweet way of expressing them. She's a smart one!!
