I got up around 6:20 and as usual on a Sunday, Dad came in to get me. We hung out in my room for over an hour, playing and reading and horsing around (including jumping on Dad’s belly!). We even reorganized the basket on my dresser. Finally we went downstairs (very quietly!) and cooked an egg. I rejected the oatmeal Dad tried to feed me. I impressed him by asking for khoubiz! After giving me a slice of bread, Dad realized he could do better, so he toasted a waffle and spread pumpkin butter on it! I loved it, as you can see:
After Mom got up we went to soccer practice, where the videos tell the story:
After practice we went to the park. Mom got us a yummy treat from the farmers’ market while Dad and I practiced climbing:
After we got home, I played with Mom while Mom and Dad got lunch ready. We didn’t eat until 12:15 and by the time we got done at 12:45, I was pooped! I slept for two and half hours and woke up in a great mood. I helped Dad put my laundry in the washer and then pretty soon thereafter, all three of us went for a walk. We stopped by K-Mart and Jewel before getting back home. I helped Dad cook cauliflower and fish and then played and read with Mom until dinner was ready.
I absolutely devoured my fish, eating almost two full portions of salmon. I ate a bunch of cauliflower, too. Dad tried to trick me into eating plain yogurt for desert, but he quickly relented and let me have as many grapes as I wanted. We folded my laundry and then I went to bed at 7:30.
Last year I was in Dow!

Good morning, Miss Margaret –
All I have to say is that you are just too darn cute!
It appears that you are well on your way to becoming a soccer star. Grandpa Droste (and I’m sure, Aunt Claire) are cheering for you already!
One of my favorite pictures right now is you licking the brownie beaters. Love it! I am so glad that your dad and mom are teaching you to cook. Hooray! I am also pleased that your dad is letting you try brownies. Yummy, right???
Grandpa and I are a little confused about the blog of your mom’s birthday and what her age is. We can discuss that.
Can’t wait to see you on Thursday. I am so looking forward to it!
Take good care, and have a great week!
Love you, Maggs!
Grandma
