We went to see The Lorax this weekend, and Grace had THE best laugh in the theater.  She would laugh harder and louder than anyone else in the place, and it made me smile every time.  She just truly enjoyed herself.

Eli is turning into such a sweet boy.  You know… when he’s not beating on anyone.  When I ask him to do something I’m hearing more of “Yes, mom” and less of that obnoxious whine.  He has a tender heart for younger kids – he loves to help them and protect them.

Ada actually is quite the rule-follower.  I haven’t noticed this for some reason, probably because her anti-authority side is so strong and prevalent.  Here’s where the difference lies – whether or not the rule is established.  If there is a rule, it will be followed by all.  If there is NOT a rule, and you don’t have the authority to tell her to do (or not to do) something, then her attitude will come out.  Really, her world is SO black and white.
