She Smiles at Her Future.......


She Dances like No-one is Watching......

This child of mine constantly amazes me. She is so feisty, smart & funny. Honestly she doesn't talk alot but when she does she is usually naughty, telling me what to do, screeching at her sisters or being a clown!!! Today I had a fight with her about what she was going to wear??!! Can you believe that. All of 2 1/2 going off as she wanted to wear a pretty (that's what she calls dressups) & be a AH AH (which is code for princess or Ariel)!! Anyway Mummy won, but today I realised that I need to record the funny things she does. She loves her banky (blanket) & dummy (dum dum)which I know I should wean her off, but hey it gives me some peace & they don't go to school with them so I think what the heck....at least I know she will be strong & confident & know what she wants!! Seriously though if I didn't want to keep a handle on it, Ant & I are disciplining her (we are quite tough) but most of the time have to turn away as we are peeing ourselves laughing!!! She is just such a clown. Even though she has probably been our hardest baby in the way of food allergies, sleep & stubborness, I just look at her & just want to cuddle & kiss her all day!! She is just so precious!!! Today she told me to " go det it Mumma", I told her to do something & she goes "NO mumma you det it" (in other words you get it Mum).
She goes all day & then crashes with her mouth wide open & with either Bubba or Ah Ah.

I am grateful today for 3 incredible girls that God has given me & the awesome chance to be able to stay home & be a Mum to them. Some days it is hard (sometimes more hard than easy & not much thanks) but I know that it will be worth it one day!!!
Happy Tuesday.
