Maia did a worm from a handstand, lowering herself from a handstand and going right into it. So amazing!
Penelope spent much of the afternoon wandering around, following cats in barefeet. I looked out the window at one point to see her trailing after it in the woods. So funny!
Yesterday Elijah was running with the football and (in his words) "Daddy zoomed across, but then missed! And then he zoomed across again and then Piper blocked me. And then he ran around AGAIN to get me and then he smacked me and I fell out of the cones! It was a terrible day for Eli!" He was so excited that he "finally had something we could put in the journal!" Cute kid.

We enjoyed chatting with Lily today. She is such a light! This poem reminded me of her:
