I Love...

*when you sing yourself to sleep.

*that a lady in the store said to me that she could tell you were a sweet and obedient little girl. Oh how I agree.

*when you sing your own songs to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle. ("Go, go, go, go, go, go. Chicken, go outside. Mama shut the door." and on and on). LOVE IT!

*when I found you in the bathroom today all by yourself. You were sitting on your step stool, putting your panties on.
I asked, "What are you doing?"
You answered, "I'm putting on my panties."
I said, "Did you go to the potty all by yourself?"
"Yes. I t-t'd all by myself."
"Did you wipe?" I looked in the toilet to see a tiny piece of toilet paper.
"Yes, all by myself."
As I tried to help you put your panties back on, you pushed my hands away, and yelled, "I'll do it by myself MOMMA!!!"

*when you "load up" your stuff to go "shopping." You have your stroller, baby, toys, magazine, credit card, purse, keys, and phone. You're a pack mule just like your mom.

*when you say "show-ah" (shower).

*when I get you in the morning or after nap and you say, "I'm AWAKE. Let's PLAAAAAAY wif my toys."

*how you pushed your baby in a basket that was taller than you around Kohl's today.

*that you always want to help me around the house.

*that you make "good choices" and make sure I know about it. You say, "Momma, I made a good choice."

*that you're aware when I'm using bad or good manners. "That's bad manners Momma."


Oh, how I LOVE you little baby.
