Notes from The Dragon & Her Gunniwolf Sister

It occurred to me last week that I am the only one who really gets to hear about the highlights directly from Audrey and Bailey's Days; not even John is really privy to what we talk about before they go to sleep.  So, since so many of you are far away, I thought making a weekly habit of posting their journal entries might be a nice way to keep track of the girls: what their priorities are, the turns of phrase they so often use and basically how fantastically hysterical they can be.  Bear in mind, I only really expect a handful of people to genuinely appreciate it, but I figured this was as good a form of media as any.  (All stuff in parentheses is edited by yours truly)

Bailey's most common facial expression

Bailey's favorite thing: Mama watchin' a movie!  I see my friends.  Terrence--that's my favorite.  Mama, I love bad guys. (Oy...where do I even start with that one)
Prayer: Thank you, this day. Watch over my friends. Watch over my goat.  Amen.
Audrey's favorite thing: Playing with my friends--having fun with them.
Thankful for: my cozy bed...mmhmmm.  It's very comfy.
Prayer: for your long hair, for my cute little Bailey

Thankful for: Bailey said a crazy part--when we went on that train where we sit down. (I have no idea what this means)
