Run Anna Run

Lately, Anna is obsessed with running shoes. Mommy's running shoes, Daddy's running shoes, and Anna's running shoes. When she gets these shoes on, she always starts running. It reminds me of that scene from "the Sandlot" where one kid asserts that new black Converse sneakers are guaranteed to make a boy run faster and jump higher.
but I think for Anna it is the color pink. Its like she becomes supergirl when she wears the color pink. Combined with her running shoes, she is a force to be reckoned with.
But when she is not running, she is content to sit and smell the foilage...

and to sit and play in the soil...
and to lay in the grass and serenade the bees...
and to hide in the grass with her lamby
and to generally show Dora the explorer that she's got NOTHING on Anna!

what a girl! She amazes me everyday with her spunk and energy and unique perspective and imagination. And she is SO incredibly intelligent. When it is time for her to be in school, she is going to be the one schooling me!

we have fun.

she is my friend!

She is quite the girl! Pink is defnitely girl power:) She looks so much like you, and I imagine as I'm reading all of your proud mommy-isms, that this is exactly what your parents must have said about you! Run, Anna, Run!

I love that you call her your friend! What a tribute to how much love being a mom.
