-Shopped for groceries and some supplies for the Christmas gifts we plan to make ourselves.
-Got started making some gifts. (I'll post about them after Christmas - don't want to give away any surprises!)
-Swimming lessons.
-Jason read Astrid a story from the Princes and Princesses book.
-Astrid told me all about how she used to be an evil woman, but one day she found some ducks and began helping them and, by doing so, turned into a very good woman. She had a beautiful ring which she showed to everyone she met, including some princes and princesses. She asked each of the princes if they wanted to marry her and the princesses if they wanted to be her best friend. They all did because she was such a nice person and the didn't know she used to be evil. So she chose a prince to marry, thereby becoming a princess with secret powers. She told no one about these powers except for her mother and her husband. Tomorrow, she told me, she is going to have a baby. She is going to just come home and push out the baby in one push without having to take off her clothes because that is how her births always go. I asked her how she could accomplish this. She said it's because of her secret powers. There won't even be a hole in her clothes from the baby passing through them! This story was based on something she had acted out by herself earlier in the day. It was quite entertaining to hear about!

Does Astrid believe in reincarnation?
Who knows? I doubt she's familiar with the concept! She often tells me in story form about things that she acts out or imagines as if they actually happened. Her and Muirgen will sometimes have entire conversations about things that never happened. You'd never know, listening in on them that they're talking about imaginary events.
