12 Things About Her Right Now




1. You want to be with Momma every second of the day. You hate to see me leave or when I have to drop you off for before care at school. Sometimes there are still tears. Sometimes you keep shouting I love you as I walk away down the sidewalk.

2. You proclaim your love for me ferociously. "I love you, Momma! Mwah! One more kiss. I love you high. I love you to outer space and back." And I just love it.

3. You are small, but oh so mighty. You are a leader despite your size.

4. You play school, nearly every day. You have "kids" which are usually named after the ones from school. You tell them what to do and set up little work stations for each one (on the floor) with books, papers, and crayons.

5. Making art is one of your favorite pastimes. You color, cut, tape, and glue away the afternoon. You make me surprises and your eyes dance as I ooh and aah over each one.

6. You love gymnastics and practice your cartwheel often.

7. You ask to cook with me and are turning into quite a little chef. You want to do it yourself and don't want help.

8. Mostly, you have cereal for breakfast.

9. You love school and tell me all about different things you've been up to.

10. You are so thoughtful, always looking out for brother and making sure that he gets a bite of something or a treat, even if it means sharing yours.

11. You pick your scabs something awful, especially your mosquito bites. So it takes an eternity for you to heal.

12. You have a hard time sitting through a movie on T.V. or through church. You must move. It's just a part of you.
