Terrific (and terrible) Toddler-dom
Happy Fall from the pumpkin queen!And from the Hay-bale princess ;-)
V is such a toddler these days, her mind expanding at a rapid pace (I think the fresh fish for dinner helped!)
We were laying in her bed tonight after reading a story, snuggling before I told her goodnight and left the room. She asked if I wanted to hear her song, and then began singing, "You and me are friends to-ever and ever" A tune I've never heard, words that aren't a part of any song I can think of! Then she said, "Did you like my song? It was special, just for you!"
So many things lately are just so great about having a toddler. I love that she knows Jaja and Busha's vehicle, and gets so so so excited to see them pull in the driveway, then runs out the door to greet them. I loved watching her little legs carry her as fast as they could go all the way to their just-opening car doors.
Of course there are the drawbacks to having a child with such a rapidly-developing mind around (she's getting quite opinionated and vocal about what she likes/doesn't like to do, eat, play with, etc.!) But the benefits of watching her grow far outweigh the trying times.
I do love my *job* and am ever so grateful every day that I get to spend so much time with my beautiful daughter.
We finally got our web-cam up and running, so now we can chat with Jeff& Marie and the girls, and anyone else who has a webcam!

We'll have to set up a time to get together on the web cams! We do ours through AOL, but could probably figure out a way to get ahold of you.
We sure enjoyed our day yesterday visiting with V, Kristin and Rod.I can't even express what those sweet little hugs from V do for me! It's so funny to hear the song she sang for you yesterday because as she and I were playing I thought of the song we used to sing Kristin, "you & me were going to be partners, you & me were going to be friends"....etc, from girl scout days! Love and hugs, Busha
THAT song just became #1 on my list of favorite songs! A song from the heart, indeed.
Thank you three for a great day yesterday; from the Orchard time to the football lessons.
BTW, the tune and words should be very familiar to both Mommy and Daddy. They came from your hearts from day 1 almost three years ago!
Many more songs to come, I promise.
She is just beautiful!
Gotta love those songs they come up with.
