Debut

Meryl had her first performance in the Church Preschool Choir today. She did great. She even entertained the congregation by going right up to the microphone to sing! She was so excited to be able to sing to Uncle Chris and Aunt Julie.

Haircut

Meryl got her second ever haircut today. She sat very still, thanks to the candy cane left over from Christmas.

28 cent Pet!

Eddie and I decided that Meryl was ready for her first pet...well, at least a 28 cent pet! So Meryl and I headed off to Walmart to pick out the perfect goldfish. Meryl picked a beautiful gold and white one and the man somehow actually caught the exact one she wanted out of a tank of hundreds of fish. Meryl was so excited! When asked what she wanted to name the fish, she immediately said, "Dorothy!" For those you who don't know, Dorothy is Elmo's goldfish on Sesame Street.
