Big Conversation

Today Miah engaged in a big conversation for a two and a half year old. It went something like this:


Miah- Pointing to her scrapbook "China Mommy. Stay China"

Me-"Yes your China Mommy is in China"

Miah- Pointing to me " Miah Mommy Stay"

Me-"Yes Mommy will stay with Miah"

Miah-"Mommy stay Miah" Points to scrapbook "China Mommy. Stay China"


It breaks my heart that a two year old has to even think about such things and that she feels the need at such a young age to confirm that her Mommy is staying with her. I tell her everyday that mommy will come back when I need to go out without her. I pray that soon she will have the secure assurance that I will not leave her and that soon her biggest worry in life will be no more than how to make a good mud pie or how to not get caught stealing the last cookie!


Did I mention that I cannot wait until this child is potty trained?

Circus Day!

Each year the Kindergartens and the Preschool kids have Circus Day together as a way for the Preschoolers to meet the Kindergarten teachers. This is the 6th Circus day in our family...thank goodness for dance recital costumes.

Madi is on the top right in her Raggedy wig. She wanted the tear drop because she wanted to be a sad clown. She also says her favorite color is black and she wants all black clothes...should I be worried?
