Isabelle used to call herself "Ah-bes" (like Isabelle, only putting the s at the end), and now she uses "Isabelle" a lot of the time. That alone just makes her seem so much older. She enunciates so well when she speaks. She used to call Dixon "Dickens" and now she says that right too. (It's funny because when she says Isabelle right, she sometimes follows it with saying "Dixon," like, "Look, here's the other tricky one I've mastered.")
Then tonight at dinner she out-of-the-blue said the prayer all by herself. She hasn't been praying at mealtimes for weeks. She's been saying she wants us to do it. Then tonight she prayed, "Heavenly Father, thank thee for the food. Amen."
And earlier today... Wendell rolled over by himself for the first time!! Then a few hours after that he started some crawling action!
I'd better get to bed.
Life is good.
