Causing Trouble April 26, 2008

As promised, I am finally adding pictures…

This little girl is quite the opinionated little lady. She has grown and changed so quickly – it’s amazing how fast she learns new things. Her latest has been to rather loudly proclaim “eeeeeww” when walking past the toilet or looking at her dirty feet (she and I both prefer to go barefoot!) She has also added “uh oh” to her vocabulary.

Some days are quite challenging, but – after a battle of the wills – I’m not sure who really wins… she’s too cute for me to stay angry with. And then there are so many things that she is so very good about. She never cries when I put in her bed. After reading a Bible story and rocking for a few minutes, we go to the bedroom to say her nighttime prayer, and after a kiss, I put her in bed with Blankie. Tonight, the only thing out of her mouth was a “bye,” muffled by a pacifier and accompanied by a sweet little wave of the hand. Awwwww… it makes me choke up, just thinking about it.

    It always amazes me how quickly they grow up and how much they learn in such a short time. Treasure every moment – there are no reruns.
