Lately we've been getting some snow storms like the ones I remember as a kid. There has been a lot of icicles hanging from houses and buildings. At first Kendi called them "tricycles." After trying to correct her she now calls them "Ice Tricycles."

I wish I could remember all the little phrases Kendi uses all the time, but I would have to frequently stop and write them down. One of my favorites is when Kendi has been playing by herself and decides to come find Jared and I, she goes through the house yelling, "Hey guys?" It makes me feel like we're all just friends.

I love to just sit and watch Kendi because you can almost see the wheels turning in her head. There are time that she amazes me with how well planned out she is. When I was too sick to do grocery shopping Jared and Kendi would take some daddy-daughter time to go to the store. It has become a fun tradition for them. Lately, I've been going with them. Jared usually pushes the cart, I grab all the stuff we need and Kendi either rides in the basket or walks along. It was later than usual the other night and Kendi had walked with us all through the store. All of a sudden she told me that I should push the cart. I asked her why and she just said that it was my turn. I could tell she was up to something so I said ok and winked at Jared. Sure enough, as soon as Jared let go of the cart she went up to him and said, "Hold me."
