Samisms

A few gems from Sam today:

Conversation #1 tonight in the bath -

While looking for one particular playmobile person, Sam said, "Where is that lady with the dyed hair?" 

Neenie responded, "Is she hiding? She's trying to keep from getting put away. I think we've got her number!"

Sam: "I think her number is three!"


HA!

Bath Comment #2: "Isn't that unbelievable?," said with just the right emphasis on unbelievable. :-)

Comment #3 to Neenie, earlier today: "Today was a very calm, relaxing day." What almost-5 year old says this sort of thing? Or even notices that it was a rather laid back day? Sometimes I am in awe of the way Sam vocalizes her thoughts and speaks her mind using sophisticated vocabulary and phrases.

Aside from being awed by Sam's use of the English language, she also did a great job swimming in and jumping into the pool without her bubble on. It was an incredibly warm day so the water felt great, and we had a lot of fun.





Here is the video of her jumping and swimming without the bubble. So proud of her!

On the running front, I got in 8 miles this morning soon after it got light out. Saw a pileated woodpecker down by the river lodge, and saw about a dozen turkey vultures roosting in a tree along the river. Also saw one bunny along the berm and a Great Egret in one of the ponds. Warm morning.
