2:11 pm  E:  "Oh my!"  She says that a lot lately.

Jan 24
5:50 pm  Greg sent me a text while he and the girls were outside.  "Emma is saying 'stamp it with a B' and hitting the ground with her butterfly net (from patty cake)."  They love patty cake all of a sudden again.  They like for us to "do patty cake" with their hands, and then they like to be in charge and do it with our hands.
