I love three! Ellie has been a joy recently. She's putting pieces of the world together faster than we can give them to her. And she's loving preschool. Her teacher Megan has been a wonderful source of all kinds of new activities and learning. So she's a happier person with all her new skills and abilities.
A recent causality of getting older though is her naps. One week she just stopped taking them. I thought they were going to get shorter and shorter until they just disappeared. But it's more like they just fell off a cliff. One day they were there and the next they weren't. Although I miss the afternoon breaks, the lack of afternoon sleep has resulted in earlier bedtimes. Take the good with the bad.
She's become a biking machine (on training wheels). Supposedly she went about 2 miles to and from a park with my brother this past Friday. She's really mastered steering and stopping. I think her tallness/size is super helpful because she can get good leverage on the pedals. We've already invested in equipment for next season so that we can all hopefully get out more as a family.
I've been meaning to write down some of the recent stories and funny things she's been saying. But of course I can't remember any of them at the moment. So I'll just post what I've got tonight and make a promise to myself to be better about getting them to "paper" over the next little while.
