Oo, this Margot Meg. She turned 3 in October. Let's honor her with a flood of pictures, eh?

Marg's 'Sweet Summer Sun, why'd you have to go and leave us?' face. Not sure what G's expression means... |

Hangin' with Great Grandma K. on her 87th birthday. |

Margot loves 'Marian Poppins' (she's watching it as I type this, as a matter of fact), so naturally we did a-- shall we say 'rustic'-- Marian Poppins themed birthday party. I quickly scribbled on this chalkboard, totally messing up supercalifragelisticexpialidocious (then Marg scribbled some more), but you get the idea. |

Mary's hat reincarnated as a cake. |
|
Pinata! |

Girl wore her vintage dress from Nana in an effort to look like Jane Banks. |
I'll spare you *most of* the droning of a mother in love with her child, and just give you a few Margot-isms to mull over.
- despite her independence with dressing, undressing, teeth brushing, hair brushing, hair washing, etc., she's usually playing quite near me instead of with the older two.
- she has crooked pinkies like her mama, Great Grandpa K., and a few other relatives.
- girl likes things in pairs, and can't handle if things aren't in their proper place. She's not a neat-freak (I wish), but if one marker is missing from the box she will go on an exhaustive search of the tri-county area in order to restore the item to its proper place alongside its compadres.
- she has drawn on more non-paper surfaces than the older two combined.
- she is miniature in stature- closer to the size of a two year old than her three year peer group.
- both her first and middle name mean 'pearl'.
- today she's been calling me 'mama' instead of just mom.
That's my girl.
