Penn's Colony 2008

Penn’s Colony is an event that happens in the Pittsburgh Area once a year during the last two weekends of September. We had fun, the girls got to ride in a Surray (Horse & Cart) And the guy let my sister’s son (almost 2-years) drive-with help, lol. The girls got these cool whistles, that sound just like birds. So they aren’t too annoying. All in all, we basically had fun, and the girls want to do it again next year. Maybe I will have some of my own money to spend, because they do have some really cool stuff there.
Journals
I started journals with my girls this last week. It’s helping me with communicating with Pink a little easier. She seems more than willing to just talk and talk and talk some more while I am filling in a page in her journal. She’ll tell me everything, from how she felt about something, to why she did something she wasn’t supposed to do. It’s interesting, but it’s like I am not even here while I write the entry for her. (She’s only six, so she can’t really write everything on her own yet, and I kind of like this look into her life right now) And Bugs, she just likes to tell me things, and she thinks it’s cool that I am writing it down, but she’ bluntly honest about things anyway. So, that’s one more thing I’ve added to my life of things to do in a day, but it’s well worth it to finally learn how to communicate with one of my kids.
