It's been a doozy of a week.
1. Ada broke her thumb on Monday and she has been a trooper through it all even though her right had is casted and she has to ask for help to do simple things. I'm sure there will be photos in the coming posts with her in her cast. It's rad- purple with sparkles.
2. Snow day home from school with a kid who couldn't play outside = crazy cooped up ladies.
3. Emma home 2 days from school with a stomach something that has not been fun for either of us.
Through it all I have to give these girls credit. They rock. I am so proud of each of them for being able to roll with it and for the most part not completely loose it. Even with an overly emotional mama.
This morning I overheard Emma talking to her dollies. She was being the mama and they are her babies. She was trying to put one of them to bed and I heard her say, "No dillydally. C'mon." I have to say she hears those words A LOT and while I'm sure there is a way I could talk differently to her and encourage her in a more positive way it was precious to hear her little self say that to her dollies.
Love this kid.
Emma IS so sweet! I hope her tummy's feeling better soon.
ReplyDeletePoor Ada! She must be exasperated not being able to do things herself! Does she have to wear the cast for a long time?
Only 3-4 weeks. Could be way worse on lots of levels. Not super hot, not swimming weather, she's missing artwork and writing but it's not like she has homework or assignments she's missing. It's helping her practice asking for help which she needs as my daughter ;)
