Audrey

So Audrey speaks in what we like to call Audrey-inese.  She is going to be evaluated my Early Intervention this week.   I hope this will help her.

"It's not fair, I don't even get to live like a princess!"

Kayleigh has been acting like a 4 1/2 year old. Not listening, back talking, you know the usual.  The other night I sent her to her room because she wasn't listening.  As she is stomping to her room she is crying/screaming "I'm not being daddy's princess any more.  I don't look like a princess, I don't sleep like a princess, I don't get to dress like a princess, it's not fair, I don't even get to live like a princess!"  Meanwhile Audrey is saying "I listening, I a princess"
One might wonder why does she even think she is a princess?  I wish I could live like a princess too, but I don't think throwing myself on the floor would be a  good idea.  I might get the side eye from people.  Randy talked to her and said she will always be his princess and told her she could wear a tiara all day tomorrow.  geee, I wonder where she got that idea of being a princess.  I asked Randy if I could wear my wedding tiara all day tomorrow too, but the answer was no.

Feb. 9 is coming up quickly

One year ago on Feb 9th we found out that baby #3 was a girl.  My mother was there with us watch little Miss Faith wiggle around.  She left that day with a big smile on her face.  She couldn't wait to have another little princess as a granddaughter. 

As we left the appointment that day, we laughed, hugged and said goodbye.  That was the last time I saw my mother alive.
