Then she puts her ear directly next to yours and speaks in a whisper while facing away from you. This is extremely hard to hear and absolutely darling.<\/li>\n<li>Due to too many uneaten and complained over dinner times, we&#8217;ve instituted a new monthly menu schedule. (The jury is still out on whether the little kids are eating any more dinner but there does appear to be a little less complaining.) In February the Monday night menu included eggs. On a Monday night Maggie came into the kitchen. I told her we were having eggs. She said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t like eggs. I&#8217;ll have a banana and you can call it an egg,&#8221; and left before I could respond. She&#8217;s a quick one!<\/li>\n<li>Maggie understands the progression of her upcoming school career. She recently told me &#8220;after I&#8217;m in Ms. Katie&#8217;s class I will be in Ms. Rachel&#8217;s class. Then I get to go to kindergarten. I can&#8217;t wait to be in Ms. Tadrus&#8217; class. I love her.&#8221; She might be ready but I&#8217;m not.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photos.dspencer.net\/2015\/Winter-and-Holiday-Fun\/i-TnZvc2S\/A\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.dspencer.net\/photos\/i-TnZvc2S\/0\/750x1000\/i-TnZvc2S-750x1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photos.dspencer.net\/2015\/Winter-and-Holiday-Fun\/i-tms95pk\/A\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.dspencer.net\/photos\/i-tms95pk\/0\/750x1000\/i-tms95pk-750x1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photos.dspencer.net\/2015\/Winter-and-Holiday-Fun\/i-R9HMfHw\/A\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.dspencer.net\/photos\/i-R9HMfHw\/0\/750x1000\/i-R9HMfHw-750x1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are so many hilarious &#8220;Maggie\u00a0phrases&#8221;, conversations, and mannerisms, if only I would write them down more often!
