1,2... skip a few, 99, 100!



On Sunday Rachel was writing numbers down our driveway with sidewalk chalk. When Nate got home from a meeting she was at 16. He told her to keep writing until she got to 100 thinking that would get her across the street. She didn't hesitate at his request and kept on writing. Her writing got smaller and smaller, a few numbers were backwards and she said she had to curve it around the man holes, but she did it! 100! She was proud of herself and I have to admit so was I!

Is that going to be her new time out? It is funny how something as simple as chalk can keep a child busy for a long time. That is so cute!

What an accomplishment Rachel! That must have taken quite a while. It is nice that you live in a quiet circle where your kids can actually be in the road. Very cute.
