20 months and almost 5!

With each passing day our children are growing right before our very eyes!  AlteLu is 20 (!) months old now.  She loves to sing and dance, will try lots of different foods (when in the right mood--this week it was daal and roasted brussel sprouts).  She loves music class, swinging, and reading "gooks."  She recognizes circles and her most recent color of recognition is purple.  When painting she wants me to draw "fishies" for her, and if she wants a piece of something, it is called a "piecey," a drink is either "agua"  or "sip?"  Waffles with d'vash and peas on the side are a favorite, and she definitely know what a cookie is.  She also just said, "Help, please!" for the first time tonight!  AlteLu is a delicious delight,
Our boy HBB, is about to turn 5(!)--how is this possible!  Just the other day I was telling Hersh about how he would've loved Baby Hersh.  5 year old Hersh is inquisitive, caring, funny, and creative.  He is excited about his birthday, and feels very much an active member of our household.  He has a vivid imagination and plays an important role in his classroom community.  Grateful for everyday with these loves!
