Mom and I sit down and read my past blog posts. I like the ones that have scenes with me in them.
Hi, Audie, I say and point to the screen.
Then Mom goes back to some of my old, old posts.
Hi, baby, I say and wave.
Mom laughs. “That is you when you were a baby,” Mom says.
I look at [...]

When Aunt Jane was here, she taught me a new rhyme. A hand rhyme. In Czech.
She would scratch the palm of my hand and say words. The words are about a chick that will scratch the ground for feed.
Then Aunt Jane would touch each of my fingers. She said some chicks get food. Some do [...]

One word is for babies. I now say two words at a time.

I like Mom’s spice drawer. It has small jars that make sounds when I shake them.
I sit down on the floor and take off the caps. And shake the jars. Until there are green specks all over the place.

Mom picks me up from day care and we go to a gym. She tells me I am in a class where I can run, jump and walk on a beam.
Sounds like fun.
But there are new kids there. I do not want to play with them. I do not want to do what the gym [...]

A box comes in the mail. Mom pulls a suit out of it. A swim suit. For me.
It has stripes. And some stripes are orange. That is just what I want.
It has small beads on the straps, too. I point to them, and say apples.
“Do you like it?” Mom asks.
Cute, I say and take off [...]
End of snow (cone) season

Each day the snow melts more.
I must eat as much of it as I can before it is all gone.
