Cake

The kids and I had a relaxing night at home. I made grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner and put on John’s favorite movie (this week): Popper’s Penguins. I asked John to explain the movie to Gillian. He said “Gilly, there’s this one penguin his name is Loudy. And he’s really noisy.” That’s how he explained the movie. I think he touched on all the plot points.

After we ate dinner and I cleaned up, we moved our movie night to my room. Gillian brought her blanket and Kertmit too. Gillian kept covering me with her blanket and telling me to go to sleep. She would also rub my belly too. So relaxing. At some point she decided to sit on my belly. She started playing with my charm bracelet. She saw my cupcake charm and said “cake!” And she pretended to take a piece and feed it to me. Then she took a piece and ate some too. “Yummy! Cake!” I just love her imagination.
