I think that I could just make this blog about the daily escapades of my 4-year-old, Dennis, I mean Drew the Menace. His teacher — which happens to be a really good friend of mine — told me that every time she would say something today that she would hear a slight echo of her words. Really softly…almost like she was hearing things but yet she could hear someone lowly repeating what she had just said. She tried and tried the entire time to figure out who was mimicking her. Finally, she said she just decided she must be going crazy, hearing voices and such:) Anyway, at the end of the day she finally catches Drew doing it. We go to get in the van and I ask him if he was repeating her today. He smiles this huge I’m-so-proud-of-myself smile and answers yes. I ask him why, expecting some great insightful answer. And he says, “Because it’s fun.”

So, a little while later I relay this to his dad and do you want to know what his reaction was? A hearty laugh and a “Well, that does sound like fun”. I wonder where he gets this???? It’s a mini dad in the making!

Onto the family of 3 that I photographed last week.

I just love the way this picture turned out. I love mother/daughter pictures and it reminds me of one that my mother-in-law captured of me and Mackenzie at her 2-year-old birthday party. I didn’t even know that she was taking it but it shows Mackenzie laying on my shoulder looking straight into the camera. We were both exhausted from her party and it just captured a moment of us time.

And she’s a quick little one. This was as she ran by me. The pictures right before and right after were a blur…glad that this one came out.
