Max and Ruby
Graham loves Max and Ruby, two bunny characters created by Rosemary Wells. Ruby is the older sister and rather bossy. She spends her time directing Max, which is something that I can relate closely to as I was very much a director growing up. But Graham doesn't let me be Ruby when we play Max and Ruby because, like his mother, he enjoys being in charge.
"Mama, you be Max and I will be Ruby." (surprise).
"Mama, you be Max and I will be Ruby." (surprise).
"Max, we need to go to grandma's. Get in the car, Max. I have the map. You will sit in the passenger seat and I will drive us because you are too little to drive but I am not. I am big."
"Max, you have to come over here. Now! And no whining. I said that for a reason."
...my own words begin to haunt me...
The characters never actually fight in the books, and Graham doesn't fight with his sisters, either. His idea of fighting is waving things around really fast, panting like a dog, and laughing, all at the same time.
It's pretty fun to play Max and Ruby, even if I have to be Max.

Week in review
Saturday, July 18, 2009
Mom came to help with the kids while David spends two weeks at Pope Air Force Base. We added to our party on Sunday when Emily and baby Elisabeth flew in from Houston. Graham and the girls have enjoyed their cousin Libby and I have enjoyed spending quality time with some of my best friends!
ETA: David did come home Thursday night to get a uniform, in case you were wondering who among us was holding baby Libby with such ghastly hairy legs and arms.
