For Posterity

Because this blog gets bound up as the kids' baby book, I'm posting a couple of recent quotes.


Quote 1.
Zoe is cutting two more molars. Her mouth was actually bleeding yesterday and she has been MISERABLE the last two days. Her first 2-year molar came in a couple of weeks ago and I didn't even realize it was happening. She was so crabby I was convinced she had an ear infection and actually took her to the doctor. So tonight she was having meltdown #379 of the weekend. I took her over to the rocking chair where we have literally spent hundreds of hours over the last two years rocking crying babies/toddlers. I covered her up with a blanket and we snuggled for a few minutes. Silas brought a ball over to her and gave her a hug. She said "all done sad", and wriggled out of my arms to go run and play.


Atta girl, Zoe, atta girl.


Quote 2, from FB.
Alissa Westerlund
Silas points to my forehead tonight at bedtime and says "boo-boo". I said, "no sweetie, that's not a boo-boo, that's called a wrinkle". Zoe looks closely at my forehead, agrees with Silas, and says "boo-boo". Then she leans over, kisses my forehead, and says "all better!".

Who needs botox when you have 2-year-olds to kiss your wrinkles away?

    • Elaine Speare I said to you I had two wrinkles, one named Stephanie and one named Alissa. It comes with parenting.
