Margaret Mary LOVES Storybox and Cake

She loves to read. period. She will bring us a book and ask "whats this one about?" before sitting down in our laps. She is so big and really talking up a storm. She is also starting to read to us. She will pick up a book and start each page with "once upon a time, there was a (name object on page)." Her little stories are so cute. This is one from yesterday: "Once upon a time there was a gorilla. A MEAN gorilla. GO AWAY GORILLA!!" Turn page. :)

She also loves to make cake. :) Or to eat it I should say. These pics are from "Mama Mary's" birthday that we celebrated in the church a while back. We celebrate her birthday as a huge moment in salvation history. The woman who would bear the Christ Child in her very own body is born; the Word made flesh is just years away.

Here is MM singing Happy Birthday to one of our favorite pictures of Mary, Our Lady of La Leche.

Here she is eating to cake batter. :)
