She shuts her bedroom door and will read stories for hours. The minute you try and open the door to check on her... just a little ... SLAM! I tell Ray that this is her quiet time.

Besides a few ba-dees, dadas and mommas Madelyn is very quiet. When she wants something she has the most Innocent way of pointing and asking "was dat?" She pretends she has no idea what a french fry is, maybe I could just try dat? She will also put her hands under her armpits and wave them like a chicken- only if you hum the chicken dance song or sing the Rock-A-Bye your bear. Through these dances and moves I see who she will be. I see the young girl, tween, and adult she will -god willing- become. It honestly takes my breath away... being with her is what life is all about.

Just for fun... A 'Not Me Monday" (Something MckMama created to allow us to let go of some "unsightly" moments without judgement.)
Here goes...
No, I was not loading the dishwasher and let Maddy remove dirty forks and spoons and let her put them in her mouth because that was the only thing that allowed me to finish the job. No! Not Me!
No, I did not pretend to not see my beautiful daughter remove all the furniture mover sticky thingies from my nightstand and then proceed to stick them all over her face. Because this did not, now make these unusable... I did not put them back in the drawer all stuck together for the next time Maddy wanted to play and Mommy needed to blow dry her hair. No! Not Me!
