Princess Costume

 

 

I made Mena's princess costume for Halloween this year.  It's actually purple; I'm not sure why it looks blue in the pictures.  I like how it turned out and Mena loves it.

Funny Mena stories:

I was driving home from daycare.  I stopped at a red light and Mena said, "Mom!"  I turned around to see her point to her knee and say, "I getting hair on my knees just like Daddy!"  She laughed and laughed.

While at her dad's house I got a text from Gene that said, "Mena drew a cross on a pice of paper and said, "There's a cross, dad."  Gene said, "That's very nice, Mena."  She said, "Now someone can die on it." LOL!  Then a few days later she laid in the sandbox at Gene's house and said, "I die on the cross.  Maggie, come die on the cross with me."  Maggie replied, "okay."  Again, LOL! I've had some conversations with her about how people die/get to heaven.  The talk of people dying seems to be less now that she made sense of Jesus taking us to heaven.  Us refers to both people and animals since Jesus takes care of our guinea pig that got sick and died.
