This girl has got some mad cutting skills and cut up Grandmas ginger ale box and made this gem!! Today she also told me she was starting to get scared of spiders. Then a few minutes later she asked me what kind of scientist studies spiders. Before I could answer her ( read: Google it) she said oh I think it's an arachnologist!! What?! Yes. Yes that's right. She asked when she could start being one and I told her she had to learn about it first. So guess what we're doing tomorrow?! Then we face timed Grandpa B to ask about his pet tarantula he used to have. 

She also came running down the stairs this morning so excited to tell me that she said her morning prayer all by herself!  So proud of her. Then tonight at bedtime we were going through all the "steps" of bedtime. Step #8 is go to sleep but she sat up and said no mom, step #8 is ask questions!! And that along with I'm thirsty and I'm having a bad dream ( before even falling asleep) are the other two common excuses to avoid sleep!
