Tonight Brenna comes to the dinner table, looks at her plate, and exclaims with a chuckle like she finds us so silly,
"Chicken! Tatoes! No kidding! They are exact opposites!" And then takes a great big bite! =)

One of Brenna's favorite things to do is to go to http://www.starfall.com/ and play in the "Learn to Read" section. She can play "wearn to wead" all day if I let her. Well part of it are these short stories in which you can click on the words and it will sound it out and then say the word. It is really cool and I highly recommend it {I especially like the way they do the silent e}!
Anyway, the other day I was pulling my coupons out of my papers. There were newspapers spread out all over the floor thanks to Little Miss Mess! ;) Brenna was lying on her back, knees bent with one ankle crossed over her knee. Her little foot bouncing up and down, while reading to herself:
"Dir-rec-tions, Directions!...."

This morning Brenna had her little keyboard on a loop with the same tune. She was dancing all around our front room on her knees while making up her own little song to the music. I can't remember it all, for it went on for a while, but here is a taste:
I fall down everyday,
But I'm still ok.
The much better I feel,
I play dog everyday.
The much better I feel,
The much better I FEEL!
It was quite entertaining. Then I went to go type this, and I hear...
"You're Missing It! You're Missing It!!!!!"
Me: "Missing what???"
Brenna: "THE SHOW!!! You're missing the SHOW!"
So several times during the day, I would have to go sit on the front room couch while she galloped and jumped and danced to all different preset tunes on her little piano! She would gallop around the room jumping over obstacles she had placed around and then throwing her arms up in the air in a big "TA-DA!" motion with a huge smile on her face. It was really funny because she normally hates to have an audience! Maybe we are beginning a new phase...
