We went to the playroom of the Westmont Yard and unwittingly entered an area being used by Abigail’s 6th birthday party. Ezri joined the twelve “big” girls who were having a dance party. The staff leader was inviting each girl to come to the center of the circle and teach the circle a dance move they liked. Ezri’s dance is holding up a peace sign with your right hand and a fist with your left hand and then doing small bounces double-time to the music. I am thankful to Abigail’s party and her mom for letting us crash the dance and bounce house portion. I am extra proud of Ezri for being willing to leave politely and let the party move on to relay races without us.

I have no photos and, really, I’d love a video of Ezri showing off her signature dance, but here she is sleeping because a post needs a photo.

Ezri says, “Cats have 4 feet. Cats need 4 shoes.”

I have a red raincoat. Ezri has this yellow one.
I call her Mustard. She calls me Ketchup. We go puddle stomping in our condiment coats.

This is what laundry baskets were made for.

Ezri was super excited to help fix up the bike that Grandma Liz found for her. We did get the chain back on, but unfortunately did not get a chance to ride it before we had to leave.

I think Ezri’s favorite thing was that when we returned to pick up Dolly the next morning the librarians who hosted the sleepover were snoring in sleeping bags because the stuffed animals had worn them out with their many overnight antics.

Ezri stomped through the yard chanting, “snow snow snow SNOW!”

I pulled her around on her sled.

Ezri caught snowflakes on her tongue.

She threw snow like confetti in the air while cheering, “SNOW!”
