A Day out with Mommy

Day out with Mommy began with my little 2 year old going pee pee in her potty. She literally jumped off the potty, waiving her hands and bouncing up and down yelling, "Me did it Mommy, me did it!" A mixture of pride and thanksgiving welled up in me; pride in her for being so independent and exuberant, thankful that I didn't have to pull out the carpet cleaner AGAIN because she's soiled the floor. Whew.

We moved on to Walmart searching out school supplies for sister. This little one was an angel, and as a reward, she got to ride on the Bob the Builder motorized digger before we left. She was ecstatic.

Finally, we hit Fred Meyer where she held out her good behavior for a ride on the "neigh". Her word for horse. She can say horse, but it's much more fun to whinny and then raspberry at the end. And a pink horse? Who could ask for more than that.

With big sister gone for the week, it has been such a joy to get to know this little monkey better. She is a ham and a spirit all her own. What a blessing to have two girls with such wonderful personalities. It certainly begs the question, "where did it all come from?"
