5/12/20 – The Same Clothes…

I woke up at 3am and you were snuggled up with Daddy, looking like twins, so I snapped your picture. Once you were up, you were happy to do your jobs then play with your Buzz & Woody on my bed while I finished getting ready. On the way to school, you love looking at me in the rear view mirror, now that your seat is forward facing. When my eyes meet yours in the mirror, you get the biggest smile on your face and I just want to freeze you in time right there. I hope you ALWAYS love me like that…with that look in your eyes. I know I will always love you that way!

At school you were counting, grouping & patterning with eggs and birds, exploring insects & their habitats and played a game of “insects in the garden” with Eli!

I came home from work a little early & you ran around the corner, jumped into my arms yelling “I’m in the same clothes Mama! Today is Day 7!!!” We immediately went to my closet to get your new Elsa dress that you earned! You helped me prep short ribs We took a ride around the block in your car. You talked to everyone we walked by and asked a new couple we haven’t met if you could pet their dog. You are NEVER shy about asking to pet a dog!!!

I’m in the same clothes Mama! Today is Day 7!!!

When we got back, Daddy was pulling in the driveway after work. You sprung out of your chair to run to show off your new Ice Powers to him! After you wowed him with your magic, we had dinner, built an ice castle of of dining room chairs in the kitchen, then we all snuggled on the couch with a Popsicle, and watched about 30 minutes of Brave. When the time was up, we went to your room, did a few Lingos and I fell asleep with you! It’s been a busy week (last few actually) and I might have even fallen asleep before you!!!!

We had a great day. I enjoyed watching your face light up knowing you achieved your goal. I’m proud of you. I know there are a million more things you will do in your life that will be great accomplishments. I’m honored to be able to slow down and watch these tiny ones stack up. You are an amazing little girl and you will become an unstoppable, unshakable woman, I’m certain of that.

I absolutely adore you my love!
