Ahh, imaginations....

Raychel is completely involved in her imaginary play...I love to listen, watch, and engage in her play! She will play from the moment we walk in the door until I put her to bed!

A few funny moments...

When we get in the car after daycare, she says..."Daddy is not on the road. I don't see him on the road, him not there. He has a fever. He very sick and I will have to go make him better. I give him medicine and make him all better." Mommy-"Raychel you know Daddy is not really sick, he is just at work" "I know Mommy, I just pretending!"

"Look, there is a lion! RUN, he is going to get us! (Just as we enter the house and shut the door..." "Whhewwww....we are safe! We are safe, right Mommy?"

"Mommy, I want to name my thumbs! I will name them Carra and Tenna!" Then she has them play, talk to one another, and go places. "Mommy, Tenna died! She was hit by a car and broke her head!" Previous to the naming of the thumbs, she asked me if Humpty (Dumpty) died when he fell.

She makes up her own games...I think she needs a friend to play with! She lined up blocks on the table, laid out a string as a starting line, and said "Ready, set, GOOO!" as she grabbed a block, ran across the room, and tossed it on the floor. She did this with every block-10-12 of them! At least she was somewhat tired when she was done.

She is so fun, constantly thinking and trying to put stuff together! She asks random questions and after I think about it...I can come up with what she is talking about. While in Abilene I asked if she wanted to eat at McDonald's and received no response... I repeated my question and she started crying and screaming, "I don't want to eat with the pigs!!!" WHAT?????? After a few more blocks, "No, not Old McDonald's farm...McDonalds is a place to eat like Wendy's!" LOL She was MUCH happier after that!
