Visiting family

The best thing about being back in California is being close to family. Amelia loves visiting all of her grandparents. Of course, as I have mentioned before, you can't talk about future events in front of Amelia.

Thursday afternoon I made the mistake of telling Amelia we were going to visit grandma and grandpa. She picked up a favorite toy and headed straight for the door saying, "Open...open!" When I told her we weren't leaving quite yet, she became upset and started crying.

Almost the same thing happened as we were driving to Fresno. I had been looking at a community course catalog and was happy to find that they offer soccer for 2 - 3.5 year olds. I asked Amelia if she wanted to play soccer and she said, "Ok." For the rest of the drive Amelia would periodically and fairly randomly say, "Soccer."

I think Amelia would love playing with other kids her age and look forward to signing her up for community classes. I'm sure that will provide many great photo opportunities and blog material.
