A Thursday with four-year-olds

 Elena and I started our day at H.E.B.  It takes an hour with a four-year-old because everything is noteworthy.  Nail polish colors, water toys, fruits and vegetables, pastries and fish, and other people.  "Look at that lady with purple hair!" she said--in  hearing range of the woman with purple hair.

She saw a policeman and said, "Look he has handkerchiefs."

Hmmmm....

"See Yenna!  Handkerchiefs!  Like you put on the hands of somebody who did something bad.  Like burglars."

Ah, so!  Handcuffs!

"But don't worry.  We didn't do something wrong."

Coloring on the porch

"Makkin's mommy is named Kate, too?
Like our other friend with  long hair?" 

Painting miniature wooden furniture on the floor
and making a house for her cheetah
