Elle is 4!

Elle, at FOUR you are imaginative! You've fallen in love with the movie Frozen, especially the characters Anna and Elsa.  You now live part-time fantasy world where you are usually Elsa.  

-When we were driving south and passed the Mormon Temple, you gasped and yelled, "There's my castle! But not with the guy on top (angel). You need to take him off."

-"I want to go see the trolls instead of that doctor (for your well-check) and it needs to be winter and

I need to wear my running shoes because I might slip on the ice on our way there."

-"Mom, I'm your sister."

Some fun things you've said lately:

You told your substitute teacher at preschool all about your two dogs and cat.  

Mom, I want a leotard like Jae's that goes up her gyna.

Spicy makes my tongue angry

Engine stomach (growling)
My sister Merida does that (princess from the movie, Brave)
She beed sick
Hers be black 

I love you super much
I'm just a little bit shy
Reecer's my boy

After Hawaiian shaved ice-That beed amazing!

Elle, do you like the color red? Neva!

I want an alligator. That girl has one. (Shelby with a Gatorade)
It's not from my imagination because I didn't say "in a galaxy far, far away"

-At your four-year well-check appointment, you took the nurse’s hand and instantly began chatting away with her.  You told her that you have a big brother who is five and looked at Reece with a big smile.  I held you as you received your shots. You were so brave and didn't cry! All of the nurses and doctors gave you high-fives and praised your bravery.  You left on a high.    

-You love to listen to Taylor Swift on the radio, especially when Shake it Off comes on.

-You absolutely love being chased. Try to get me!

-You LOVE to pose for pictures, inspired by your older cousins.
