Slicker Heroes

Today I learned about slicker heroes. They are so awesome! They have all sorts of super powers and there are boy and girl slicker heroes. I colored one in class today. Her name is Spider Girl. She has a red suit, but no hair. At least, I don't think she has any hair.

Daddy says that when he was little, his favorite was Batman. My favorite is Bat Girl. She has a ubility belt with all sorts of ratchets. So cool!

The lovies are controlling me

As you know, I have a lot of lovies. What can I say, I have a lot of love to give and my lovies are only to happy to share the love. Tonight, something very weird happened. I suspected something the other morning when most of my lovies were on the floor when I woke up, but this evening removed all of my doubts. Yes, ... my lovies are controlling me. I was trying to put on my pajamas and could not get my arm through the sleeve. Then, I fell out of my bed for no good reason at all. I think that my lovies are using a remote controller to make me look silly. I am not sure yet which one is doing it. Maybe its Hearty. Maybe that heart that she holds is really a secret remote control made to look like a heart. It could be Bella Ella Torres Coleman. She has been giving me the blank stares lately and I admittedly have not been paying her as much attention as I used to. I will be keeping a special eye on them. One of these days one of them is going to slip up and make a mistake and then I will catch them at their little game.

Sad News

I am very sad to tell you all that Sunny, my sweet fish, has died. When we got home from our walk tonight Mommy noticed that Sunny wasn't moving. Mommy and Daddy told me that she was really old (twice as old as Daddy's grandma!) and that she must have been all used up. I decided that I wanted to bury her in the back yard. So we went out back, had a little service for her, and each said goodbye. Daddy told her that he hoped she'd be with lots of fish friends and that she would never be replaced, I told her I loved her, and Mommy told her that she hopes in fish heaven she can have more than one pellet of food to eat each day.

Mommy and Daddy said that next weekend we can go and get another fish, but I don't want to get another one like her. I'd like to get a different kind and a new fish tank. Maybe one with a pirate ship.

I love you Sunny and I will miss you every day.

My Questions from the Trail Tonight

What makes the wind?
What makes the wind stop?
Why is it sometimes night?
What does God look like?
What... God is Jesus's daddy? I thought Joseph was Jesus's daddy...
Who was the first baby?
Was it Jesus?


I had a few additional questions after we got home:


What is the tooth fairy?

What happens when you die?

Running with Mommy and Daddy

Last night I went running with Mommy and Daddy at Town Lake. As you know, we are down there a lot. But yesterday I decided I wanted to do the "loop" without the jogging stroller.* I ran some, walked some, and was carried a little. It was great. EXCEPT... as we were getting to the end I couldn't help it... I just started scrunching over. My legs were just aching. I kept saying to mom and dad, "My knees are aching! My knees are aching!!" But then the strangest thing started to happen. My butt started to itch REALLY BAD. So I just stood there and said (very loudly), "you guys!! My butt REALLY ITCHES!! I'm serious!!" Mommy and Daddy seemed like they cared but still made me walk the rest of the way to the car. Tonight we're heading down there again. I think I'll have them bring the jogging stroller this time!

* Amelia's mom here... just as a point of clarification - the "loop" is 3.1 miles. Amelia walked and ran almost all of it! Way to go Amelia!!

Overnight with Sydney!

Last night Mommy and Daddy went to see Stevie Wonder, and so I got to spend the night with my friend Sydney! I had such a great time!! After going to my friend Catherine's birthday party, Sydney and I did all sorts of fun things...

Here we are at the birthday party being "serious"

Then we went shoppin'

Worked on some serious art.

And ate delicious ribs!

In the morning we ate breakfast and then watched Rapunzel. It was the best weekend EVER!!

Who let the dogs out?

Who? Who? Who? Who?

My squirrel and pony... that's who.

Dress Up Day!

Today at school we were supposed to dress up as our favorite sports figure. When mommy and daddy asked me who I wanted to dress up as I told them I wanted to dress up like Auntie Sammy.

I think I might be a future tennis star... seriously.

Field Trip to the Library!

Today I was supposed to go to the dentist. But a-haaaa my social calendar was too full to allow such a luxury. Instead, we are going on the bus to the library! I love books. Love, love, love them. Mommy and Daddy read me at least two books every night before bed. Now that I'm in kindergarten I have my own book each night that I have to read to THEM! Each week my teacher sends home a book for me to read, and I have to answer questions about it. This week's book is all about a dog that has to run out of things. It's pretty good. I also really like this pop-up dinosaur book that I got from Nami. It's awesome... I'm serious.

I'll let you know how the library was later.

Hmm... I wonder if Mom and Dad are going to reschedule that dentist appointment?

I won't remind them and maybe they will forget about it.

Monday Ameliaisms

Amelia to Daddy:
Daddy, my left arm isn't hurt.
My right arm isn't hurt.
That's how life is. You know ... I'm serious.

Later that evening ...

Amelia: Daddy, do you have a boss?
Daddy: I sure do.
Amelia: Does my Mommy have a boss?
Daddy: Yes, she does.
Amelia: I have a boss, too.
Daddy: Yeah, who is your boss?
Amelia: Chloe.

Bad People

Amelia: Daddy, what happened on this coming Sunday?

Daddy: Something really, really, really bad a long time ago.

Amelia: Why did something really bad happen?

Daddy: Because there are bad people in the world who do bad things.

Amelia: Why are there bad people?

Daddy: So that we would know the good people in the world when we met them.

Amelia: Why do bad people do bad things?

Daddy: I don't know, honey? Maybe the bad people don't even know.

Amelia: Daddy, I think that I know.

Daddy: What do you think?

Amelia: Maybe they have a bad cat.

At My New Old School!

Well, I started my first day back at my new school. Actually, it is my first school. After about a year at my other school, I decided, after much soul searching, that I wanted to go back. Mommy and Daddy took me on my first day.

There are so many kids in my new class! I was a little nervous for at least two minutes. There were all of these faces that I did not know. I made a new friend really quickly though. She even said that she was going to come to my birthday party. I got to see a lot of my old friends and I made all new ones too. I now have more friends than I have lovies.

I really like my new teachers. They are awesome! I learned all sorts of great things today. I learned about poison ivy and I got a book from my teacher to take home to read on my own. I even got a new backpack. I told a funny joke at school today, too.

Well, I have to go to bed! I need to get my princess beauty rest!

Funny Corgis!

We went for a long walk at Town Lake this weekend and met two corgis! They looked just like Skye!! We stopped to talk to their owners and got to pet them. So fun!!
