I will go all over the town and all over the world. After I get married, I will buy a dog and go to work with Daddy and help him.”

I hope I answered everything correctly!! I love his curiosity. :)

Megan was staring at Ethan’s  plate and seemed a little sad she didn’t have a special pancake.  So, Papa made her a letter M.  She smiled and cheered just like she had watched Ethan a few minutes earlier.  So cute!
