I have been working on my large motor skills and climbing stairs. This is important because if I can go up stairs In our house we have three floors connected by two flights of carpeted stairs. I made it up one set at a time months ago. But only yesterday did I achieve the ultimate feat: I climbed "Mount Everest", going from the basement to the living room and on up all the way to the top floor! With mommy as my Tenzing Norge and spotting me all the way up, I just kept climbing until there was nothing left to climb. Aftewards, I felt exhausted but exhillarated by the experience. I plan another ascent as soon as my arms and legs recover from the ordeal.
Here is me and Skye in our "Not-a-box". They may look like boxes to unimaginitive adults out there, but we know that they are really space ships . . . or . . . race cars. . . or . . . tanks . . .or . . . motor boats. We love it when mommy and daddy push us around the smooth carpet upstairs. I keep asking for more until daddy falls over exhausted and mommy has to put the not-a-box away in the closet.
We recently cleaned my room to organize all my cool toys. I'm glad my puppies were there to help. Denali is really essential for my bedtime ritual. She always curls up at our feet and closes her eyes- reminding me that its time for sleep and I should be calm and not anxious. Thanks, 'Ali!

Soph,
Not-A-box is such a great activity- like skiing or biking, you can continue doing not-a-box as you get older and the box and the stories about the box get better and bigger!
Someday, you'll need a refrigerator box and then lighting and paint and ...and..... and....
Love, Gran
Hi Sophie,
Love the Not-a-Box! But even unimaginitive large older humans (and we know the world is full of them -especially in politics) should realize that your Not-A-Box is not a box because it says so- it says it is a Cruiser :)
So Ada has a song just for you and Ali
Cruisin'
Ali, let's cruise away from here
Don't be confused, the way is clear
And if Mom and Dad want to go - you can ask them to go
This is not a one night stand, its Ali and me forever
So let the music take your mind, whoa
Just release and you will find that we Cruisin' together
Your gonna fly away, glad your going my way
I love it when we're cruisin' together
The music is playing for us
Cruisin' is made for fun
I love it when we're cruisin' together
Ali, tonight belongs to us
Everything's right, we can win the Grand Prix tonight
And inch by inch we get closer and closer to our concourse
Let the music take your mind, Ali
Just release and you would find
Your gonna fly away, glad you're going way
