Playing in the snow...She just loves that snowman. After hugging him she said, "Oh! Snowman you so icy. I not icy. I warm."

Maya has many favorite things. She told me today that her favorite color is blue and her favorite shape is a "green circle." She also has a couple of dogs in her life that are her favorites, Lucy and Ruby. Maya's current favorite book is, "If you Take a Mouse to the Movies." As a result, we have made homemade ornaments and popcorn strings to make our Christmas tree "beautiful" just like the mouse in the story. Maya has also fallen madly in love with the movie "Cinderella". She regularly calls "Prince" on her play phone. The conversation (I only hear one end mind you) goes something like this, "Hello Prince? You there? What? Cinderella need her glass slipper? It okay, she find it. Don't worry. I will tell her to find the other one. Okay, bye Prince." She is so helpful :)
We have much to look forward to this coming year! Mark is working hard in his first year of teaching and is so talented! He was invited to the state capitol to assist in planning for the state science curriculum for kindergarten. What an honor! He wowed them, naturally! I am nearing my last finals and will be student teaching in January. We are also in the process of buying a house! It seems we are often dealing with multiple changes in a short span of time. All of these changes are good, though, so we are counting our blessings and full of excitement for the end of this year and the beginning of a new one.
