Tea Party For Sophie

Simone, "Cheers for Sophie!"

Sara
Today Simone, Sara, My Mom and I had a little Tea Party for Sophie. We got out a few candles, special hand made "flower dishes" by Simone and I, little tea cups, cookies, warm milk and a little globe.... all for Sophie.

We have been lucky to spend a lot of time this week with Sara so we thought this would be fun to do while the Daddy's are out purchasing new road/pedal bicycles and Emma, Becca and Grandma Cyndi are out having a big girls day.

(While I am writing this blog my Mom, Sara and Simone are down stairs watching Singing and Dancing with Mei Mei! (A very cute Chinese Dance/Singing DVD. They are all singing as we speak, I just love listening to them.)

Here is a little sample of our conversations from our tea party: (Let me give you a little back ground information. Scott, Becca, Emma and Sara are considering going to China with us. It all depends on the timing of the trip and the price of air plane tickets, etc......)

Michele - "Girls what is your favorite thing to do?"

Simone - "Candles."

Sara - "China."

Michele - "What is your favorite song?"

Simone - "Lullaby"

Sara - "China"

Simone - "What is yours Mommy?"

Michele - "Mine is the Island Princess song, When We are Here Together."

Grandma Prater - "Praise the Lord."

Simone - "Mine is just what Grandma said."

Sara - "I LOVE THAT ONE!"

Simone - "Sing that one Grandma." So Grandma Prater sings a few lines from that song."

Sara - "You like coffee?" (She is talking to Grandma Prater)

Grandma Prater - "Yes, do you like it?"

Sara - "NO, It's GROUSE! It is only for Grandmas!"

Michele - "What is your favorite book?"

Simone - "My favorite is Jesus Loves Me." (Grandma Prater just gave it to her for Easter.)

Sara - "Is For My Momma."

Michele - "What is your favorite thing to eat?"

Simone - "Mac and Cheese."

Sara - "Mac and Cheese."

Michele - "What is your favorite animal."

Simone - "LION"

Sara - "Tigers, Baby Tigers."

Michele - "Let's look at the globe. This is where Sophie lives in China."

Sara - "Yeah."

Simone - "It takes a long plane ride."

Simone - "Sara wants to go to China."

What a fun morning we had during our little Tea Party for Sophie!!
