cute kids

Nathan is such a sweet brother. He is very good at playing with his little sisters. Today he said to Katherine, "Let's play a game. I say a word and you say the first word you think of." She kept just repeating what he said, so he said, "No, I say a word, and then you say a different word." So he said, "female." She thought for a minute and then said, "different female." So then he said, "let's pretend we're gigantic endangered bugs... and we eat each other!" and he pretended to eat her. She giggled and giggled.

Katherine LOVES the Nutcracker ballet. We went last year and again this year. She knows the whole Nutcracker story, too. Tonight I saw a nutcracker on sale, so I got it for her. She was SO happy. I saw her on the floor with the chip bag, feeding some to her nutcracker. She told me, "we're having a party."
