January 1 – Just happened to finish up the Bible with Daniel last night, so tonight started at the beginning again. When I was telling about the Earth being without form and void he asked, “Was it just dirt?” So I explained that it may not have even had dirt, but was even less defined. “So kind of like the kitchen floor.” I just had to agree with that one.

January 11 – Daniel asked me what I needed to do and wrote it all down for me. Looks like hieroglyphics.

January 15 – He’s talking to his Pa on the phone. The part that isn’t obvious and visible is that he’s sitting on my back.

January 18 – Daniel goes around the house all day long singing little made up songs I thought this one was funny: “Bananas are my favorite food. Even if they’re good for you.”

January 23 – My cutie just slipped me this sweet note.

January 24 – Waiting for his vision appointment

January 24 – Some vision testing with Dr. Danley

January 24 – Daniel wanted to put some makeup on me, so foolishly I let him. First he said “you look even prettier than I imagined” which was nice but then closely followed this comment with “now you look 180.”

January 26 – Daniel: “Are Mimi and Poppy up?” Me: “No. It is way too early. We are the only two people in the world that are up.” Daniel: “Just us two and the animals?” Me: “Yep. Just us two and the animals.”

January 26 – Daniel has been watching “Make ’em Laugh” from Singing in the Rain over and over. “Want to see something cool? He’s got some cool moves.”

January 30 – “I love robins. They are so big, and are so talented singing.”
