Last night and tonight, I got home late (last night because of yet another grueling chorus rehearsal; tonight because I went to a journalism training event that will help me to better guide my freelancers and fact-check their information. I even gave Drew a tutorial when I got home!) to find a sealed envelope. Both nights I opened them to find...a valentine! With Rachel's name on it! It turns out that she was busy making valentines last night and tonight for Drew and for me.
When Drew asked her why she gave him a valentine, she replied, "Because I love you SO MUCH!"
Then tonight, Drew said, "What did I do to deserve another valentine?" and hugged her.
Rachel replied, "Because you do such a good job of taking care of me!"
She really is beyond adorable, folks.

Rachel has also started drawing pictures, real ones. She has a little notebook in which she draws them, and most of the time they're stick figures of herself. Today she drew herself on the long slide at Sunnyside Park, with the sun in the background, and the ground, and the nearby school, and the stone wall near the community garden. She signs all pictures "Rachel."
Tia Daniella, perhaps Rachel has inherited your artistic talent?

Today Rachel visited kindergarten because there were too many kids in preschool so she got to be with the big kids. Drew asked her if she likes being in kindergarten and she said, "yeah!"
