Last night was a bit rough – Carrie woke at 2:30 wanting milk and a diaper change, and then again at 4:30. The second time she was dry, and I told her she could have water instead of milk. She was pretty upset, so we cuddled in the rocking chair for a bit, and I asked her what was wrong. She said “doggie miss you” and pointed to the doggie on her pajamas. I asked her what she meant, and she said, “I<\/i> miss you!” She said it a few times, and in such a sad little voice. So I told her that I miss her too at night, but that if she went back to sleep we’d see each other again very soon. Maybe she had a bad dream? It was so sad and so cute I couldn’t decide whether to laugh or cry. Where do they pick these things up?<\/p>\n
Manners are becoming a big thing around here. Carrie regularly says “thank you, mama” (emphasis on mama<\/i>) when I give her things (or when she wants things she sometimes says “please? thank you, mama!” thinking it might help her cause) and “bless you” when someone sneezes.<\/p>\n
And “I love you” is starting to be a freely spoken phrase. I love it! There’s nothing sweeter than a kiss and an “I love you” at bedtime every night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
