Andy took Leilani and her friends Eden and Devon to the steam train on Feb. 9th
Month: June 2012
I found a few old photos. The blog is a big mess, I don’t expect to ever fix it, but I do hope to catch up…
Our Avo blooming. Now the young avos are al most as big as the Hass variety that Trader Joe’s sells
Our edible Hibiscus, before the bugs got to it
Young oranges. Orange by now
ANd we had lots of spiders, like every spring. They are gone now.
Our Surinam Cherry. It had fruit almost continuously from February till now.
I tried this as a punishment for a while, did not really work well in terms of stopping the behavior. But writing, lines and stories makes her calm, and seems to be a good exercise…
She wrote this just for fun
More crafts
Valentine’s day… I don’t think I ever was so far behind on the blog
I added more photos of crafts to this post on the puppet stage
Rosemary was here in January.
I lost about 20 pounds since this photo was taken. (And I ran over 5 miles today and am dead tired)
“No computers are allowed in bed. Pet the cat instead.”
A long time ago Leilani wrote a book on dragons. It is in German, I hope I’ll soon have time to translate it.
(It’s big, so it will take some time to load)

Yes I know I did a few posts on that… but this one is funny again.
I asked Leilani to read this. She read it fluently, except for 3 words, and did not at all question when I “read” these for her:
The words were “SMAE” and “SITIL” and “SLPELNIG”. She was a bit surprised though when I read to her what it really said.
