Morning Puzzle

Mother's Day Gift

Benji told me yesterday that he had "a bottle cap" for me.  I wasn't too surprised because he frequently gives me special gifts, such as a stick or a piece of string he has found.  He didn't mention that the bottle cap was actually a handmade brooch.  I wore it all day at work on Friday, and out to the theater that night.  I am wearing it again today.  I'm wondering if this is why he kept asking me whether pink is my favorite color.  The tag says "I love my mommy...  because she kisses me!"  --Victoria

Lego Flowers

"Mommy, this is my garden of flowers!  They're going to grow while I'm sleeping."

Lunch with Xavi

Mixing Up Learning Elements

This morning, I overheard Benji singing.  Then I realized he was singing numbers.  Backwards.  To the tune of the alphabet song.  I haven't had any caffeine yet, so it kind of makes my brain hurt to process this.
