Hannah has been using her creative skills lately. These drawings are of pirates. I asked Hannah why the people up at the top were frowning and she said "because they had to walk the plank." And Jimmy was in a sword fight with a pirate apparently. Who knows how she thinks of these things...we have a book about the BackYardigans who pretend fun adventures and I think she got the pirate idea from them.Yesterday she wanted to put on a program for me and Abe. So she practiced in the play room and then came out with a giraffe puppet. She stood on a stool behind the couch and told the following story. "Once there was a giraffe who wanted a friend. She asked her mommy to help her find a friend but her mommy was too busy, and her brother was too busy, and her daddy was too busy. So then the giraffe said a prayer to God to help her find a friend. The next day they went to the park to see if they could find a friend. And they did! And they were so happy." I'm guessing a psychologist would have fun with that story, but I thought it was at least sweet that she thought to pray. And perhaps I need to take more time to be with Hannah so her next story won't include a mom that is too busy. Keep on keepin' on!

Very creative little girl you have there. She is so cute.
Awesome page you made of the super creative drawings. You are doing lots of things right when your kids know to pray!
I love that Hannah is drawing pirates. That is too funny. And great job that she did a little play about prayer. Didn't that make you feel great that she knew Heavenly Father would help her giraffe find a friend? Simple faith. So sweet!
