First thing this morning she was playing with her baby sister Alice. She was making her laugh and giggle. And then she said the sweetest thing.

"Look Mom. My first birthday present...smiles from Alice."

Miss Charlotte is growing up.

Spring has finally sprung in our neck of the woods. The snow is melting and the grass is starting to peek through, prompting thoughts of summer gardening from Charlotte.

"I have and idea. We should get some raisins, plant them in the grass, and then we'll have grapes in the summer!"

I follow her reasoning. Would this work? Perhaps we will try planting some raisins this spring.
