Today we took the kids to an indoor play area on Mildenhall (the sister base to Lakenheath). The reason being that it was cloudy and overcast (be still my heart!) and therefore, outdoor play was out of the question. A little girl tried to play with Ava by barking and acting like a puppy. (This should have been pretty attractive to her as she spends many hours of each day as "Ava the Kitty". Matter of fact, I spend quite a bit of my day having "Meowversations" with her!- I digress...) Anyway- Ava decided that this little girl was being a bit too aggressive with Eli, so amidst all of the screaming, laughing, and otherwise loud children, I heard one clear little girl voice ring out, "You leave my brother alone!". I didn't know whether to be proud or wonder if my little girl was being a bit hypocritical with one of her peers. Proud eventually won out as I watched her shepard her little brother around for the rest of the time we were there. At three and a half she is quite the little mother... I guess it won't hurt Eli too much to have two over protective women in his life!

Quote of the day from this mother..."I used to paint, draw, or decorate as a creative outlet; now I reconstruct rubber lizards, draw multiple pictures of the perfect T-Rex, build fairy houses, and find humor in the clothing combinations that my three year old assembles...Somehow the later is more fulfilling! -Ness
