Sasha

In an attempt to frequently remind myself that I am so very blessed, I am going to try to note one of my blessings each day. Here goes...

#1 Sasha. What a crazy, loud, silly, beautiful blessing this child is to our family!

Her vocabulary amazes me. And sometimes makes me blush (because I know where she heard *that* word, and it wasn't Daddy!).

She calls her goggles her 'lady gaga' and thinks penguins should be called 'mangoes.' When asked how old she is, she never says '2,' but instead says, 'so big.' I hope she never outgrows these things.

She has striking blue eyes and the coolest hair. I say that not as a biased mama, but as the adult who escorts this child everywhere. People stop us to remark about how beautiful she is.

She loves reading. Pete and PJ is a favorite, as is But Not the Hippopotamus and Pat the Bunny. But really any book will do.

More than reading, she loves singing. You are My Sunshine is kinda 'her song' in this house. Every night when Andy puts her to bed they sing the ABC's and then her sunshine song.

When she's having a rough time, she'll say, "I having a rough time." When she's done crying, she'll say, "I all done crying now." When she has to poop, she'll say, "Have to take a dump." (THAT is all Daddy-O right there, in case there was any question.) She thinks she needs chocolate.

She wants to be just like Lauren, and she loves cuddling with Aubrey. And she adores Zoe, wants to hold her all the time.



She is such a sweet little firecracker, and I am so blessed to be her mama.
