Neighborhood visit!

We have had some lovely days here recently. One day, Feb. 23, to be exact, I asked Jonathan if he wanted a friend to come over in the afternoon while Annisia was sleeping. So we called a little boy across the street, but his mom said he was napping and wasn't feeling well. So we called a little girl up the road and her mom said, "sure!" Maggie came over for about 4 hours. They had so much fun. She is one month younger than Jonathan. They first played "construction". Jonathan was shoveling in some dirt by the garden, then adding a little sand to it. Then he was "pouring concrete". (Do you have any idea what they were currently doing at the job site his uncles are on?!) So Maggie got the grunt job of pushing the wheelbarrow. But they soon progressed to Jonathan's next favorite thing and that was shooting. He showed Maggie how to shoot his gun...
...then after the one shot she was indulged, he took the gun away. But she wasn't done! She chased him down the driveway, giggling! The chasing starts early, doesn't it?!
Then Maggie's little sister came over after her nap and we had all four here. Joanna is so sweet. She told her mommy, "I love Darla!" (heehee!) Look at those big eyes!
