At dinner tonight Adelie asked each of us to tell their "story and pie".  Adelie told us her pie first...it's "green."  Camille's pie is pumpkin.  Mommy's pie is lemon meringue.  Daddy's pie is coconut cream.  Grandma's pie is "whatever pie I'm eating at the time."  Adelie said "that not a pie!"

We told our various stories - usually about the day's activities. 
Adelie told us this story:
"Once upon a time (I was) born in China.  I wait and wait and wait a (at) Jinjiang (orphanage).  Jinjiang a sad and scary.  A mommy get me (and bring me) a home a family (for) ever and ever."

Little sweetheart.


Adelie is swimming completely on her own!  I'll post a video of it soon - it's cool to see a 3 1/2 yr old swimming across the pool on her own comfortably.
