Gretchen: What did we do special this week? Mags: I don't know.
G: Did we go to the library?*
M: Library. A dog ate my chip!
G: Yup. He did.
M: Maggie cried.
G: Was the doggie so soft?
M: Doggie so soft. I want to watch Shaun the Sheep.
G: Did we do anything else fun this week? Did we go to a party?
M: Party. Nora. Julie.
G: Who else? Did you make a new friend?
M: Make new friends. Milk. Milk. Milk Mommy. Milk.
G: I promise you'll get milk with dinner. What's your favorite thing to eat?
M: Bananas. I want a banana. I want some milk. Water. Water! Water!**
*We walked the whole way. Maggie on her own two feet. A mile there (an hour), a snack and puzzles at the library, and then a mile back (an hour and a half). For the way home, I had chips for walking. And then once the dog in someone's front yard ate them out of Maggie's hand, we had M&Ms, if she could catch me a house further down the sidewalk. It was a great big adventure!
** And then her cup smashed her fingers (as she was stomping it around on the table) so we have to distract. Ta ta!
