orangey-pink

Two quick things
Did anyone {in Oregon} see the lovely orangey-pink sunrise this morning?! I woke up to my white curtains looking orange, and looked outside to see this

my picture isn't as rich as in person, the color was more like this
I really need a lesson on how to use my camera better

While reading a library book in bed last night, a dollar bill fell out. *Note to not use money as a bookmark. Too bad it wasn't a 20 huh?

And on to the real post. Addie has been missing Carter more and more lately. She cries when he gets on the bus, and runs down the middle of the street after it like she can actually catch up and stow away. So we've been playing pretend school quite a bit, and Addie gets very into it. She has to get her coat on, pack a lunch, and put all her necessities in the hand-me-down Cars backpack. The necessities usually include a book, my little ponies, and her purse among other things. And yes, it's a real lunch that I have to pack just the same as Carter's. Sometimes we get in the pretend bus (the car) and go to pretend school (the grocery store), where she tells everyone that she's a big kid at school and is going to eat her lunch. And there's always a big disappointment when we go back home and have to eat lunch at the table. I can't wait until she gets to see preschool next year.
