sneaky girl...

You are potty trained.

I don't know how in the world you are so smart... but you are.

when its time for bed, you work the system and ask to go potty... usually you say the words poo poo.

You already know that if you say those words you will get mom or dad to move fast.

Every night this past week you have said it just to sneak out of going to bed.

you sit on the potty and then get up and smile and say all sorts of words.

your smart.

your sneaky.

but you are my girl.

here's to your memories recorded

I started a blog for foster about 14 mths ago... so you were only 3 mths old or so... about the age of your new baby sister Betsy. I stumbled upon it earlier today and it brought tears to my eyes. I had written him a story that I would NEVER have remembered. Just a random conversation that he and I had...

I HAVE to keep some sort of record for you. I think that my blog is going to be for me writing about our family... but these posts will ONLY involve something fun, serious, ridiculous, cute, or sweet you said... well your not talking yet... so did.

Tonight, I was not a very good encouraging "merciful" mommy. We are at Grandmaland and we were eating spaghetti for dinner... I fixed you and charlie some and you didn't want ANYTHING to do with it. I was SO annoyed with your persistent rejection to a food you normally devour. After 3 different attempts I put you to bed without dinner. I had plans of giving it to you for breakfast in the morning... but Legacy (the dog) ate it. Your lucky.
