So, what am I gushing about this week other than the really cool set up we now have for the gushing posts?
First of all, I gushed at the absolute cuteness that was Hailey this past week. Every day when we got dressed, she'd say to me, "Mommy, I don't think I need a bow today, how about a tiara instead?" And she wore a tiara through the day. She has many, so as not to get bored with it all.
Second of all, and equally cute...in the wee hours of the morning on Thursday, before Big Sissy awoke, Keelyn brought me the Minnie Mouse dress, usually reserved for Hailey, and asked me to put it on her. She regularly requests fairy wings, but this was a new one. The conversation went something like...Keelyn walked to me with the dress, nodded her head, and said, "Gunkh." To which I replied, "Do you want to wear this?" To which she replied, "Yeah," which happens to be her favorite word, with a huge nod and smile. Willfully, she stuck her head through the layers of tulle and satin, and pushed her tiny arms through the puffy sleeves. Then, she admired herself in the mirror, in the darkness of the morning, enjoying some time with mommy, indulging in Sissy's things.
And. There was that moment when Hailey woke up from her nap yesterday, and asked me to come cuddle in bed with her a bit. And the time we had strolling this week, something I've missed during the cold months. The completion of something I've been working hard on for my job. The completion, with a little...and I mean very little...help from my brother, of an entire tub of cookie dough. And another quiet Sunday upon us, with welcome gray skies outside, and time with family ahead. So much to be thankful for.
