Cute

Two quick stories about my growing baby girl.

1. She loves to sing songs. She has two that she likes to watch on youtube one is KT Tunsel called "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" and the second is "Kiss the girl" from the little mermaid. We also sing a lot of songs. Her favorite is "5 little monkeys swinging in a tree". Any time I start another song she asks for this one next. She can do the movements to wheels on the bus, patty cake, If your happy and you know it.

Well anytime I start to sing the ABC's she runs to her toy area and gets a toy that sings the ABC's we think it was pretty smart. Today I was changing her clothes at swim and I heard a lady singing "Twinkle Twinkle little star". I thought to myself I never sing that one to Alyssa. So tonight I started singing it. She ran to her toy area got a music book turned it on and played the song. I had listened to her play with that book a hundred times but never payed attention that it played that song.

2. Tonight Chris is out with friends so Alyssa and I are home by ourselves. I really want Wendy's and think I will pack Alyssa up in the car to go get it soon, but she was hungry so I was giving her a pop tart to hold her over.

I gave her a piece of pop tart. ( we are sitting on the floor in the TV room). She puts it down, folds her hands and starts to say prayer. I could understand God good and Amen. She then waited for me to repeat the prayer then picked up her pop tart and started eating.

I know she doesn't know why or what prayer means but it melts my heart that she knows that we are to do it before we eat. There are times she also will do it when we are out.

She is a smart little girl and I am so lucky to be her mom.
