Over the past two days, my brother Dwight Stone and I have walked roughly 12 miles across two theme parks, and this amazing 5 year old has matched us step for step with no complaints. I couldn't ask for a better traveling companion. She's immune to boredom, tolerant of all kinds of discomforts (heat, fatigue, hunger, soaking wet clothing, incessant re-application of sunscreen), and a rollicking good time to be around. I'm one lucky mama. (As an aside, I can't wait to squeeze my two other greatest loves after our big return flight tomorrow!) #firsttripofmany #mysunshine

309

As I emerge from my bedroom to make coffee this morning, H is sitting on the floor in the living room with the child dictionary Mary M Hoch-Moreton gave her, she looks up and says: "Mommy! When you came out I was just counting 309 in my book" like it's a crazy coincidence. #howlonghasshebeenawake #girllovesmath On June 23, 2017 at 07:49AM

Bad dream

Tonight H had a bad dream that she didn't have a mommy or daddy. Then she found some, but they were skeletons and they ate her.
