My Sweet Baby Girl
September 8, 2009
While speaking to a friend on the phone the other day, I made mention of, “my baby girl.”
My friend sounded confused as to who I was referring to. But “my baby girl” knows who she is.
And if I call her peanut, or monkey, or any other pet name I have assigned her, she quickly reminds me what her real name is. “No, I’m your baby girl.”
Although, on certain occasions, she might possess the name ”Cinderella,” or “Princess,” I assure you, it’s only temporary.
Hot Air
July 18, 2009
As I sat blowing up this enormous beach ball – sprinkler and emptying myself of every last bit of hot air, I looked at Bella, sighed and said, “I don’t know baby girl, I might not finish until next year.”
She patted me on the leg and said as graciously as she could, “You’re doing a great job mommy. It’s OK, take your time.”
I could only laugh and give her a big kiss for her patience and sincerity.
I wish I was a big girl like her.
