another moment

today- ava wouldn't go play unless i came 2. so, she game up playtime with grandma! sweet girl, i was trying to get her out in the sunshine for the 3minutes it's out.....lol
i am sick and she hasn't left my side. from watching me when i sleep to asking if i'm okay when i cough to sleeping only next to me. i remember when my mom was sick i'd sit at the doorway n near the edge of the bed just to be close to her then i'd peak up over the edge of the bed to see her.

p.s. she usually coughs with me, so i figure we're "2 peas in a pod" right now! :) thankfully she hasn't gotten strep or worse like the rest of the family (knock on wood!!!)

p.p.s weather report says more snow on Sunday, goodness! brrrr

mom moment

yesterday- let me think, how did it go....lyla walked up to ava and said, "hi lyla" [NORMAL since she calls her lyla ALL the time, we think she will be traumtiZed to learn her sister's name is Ava]:)
ava replies" No Lyla! my name is Goober, say hi Goober"
lyla had no reply....

...BUT the family thinks that is funny because that is one of her nick-names around here :)

had FUN reading to her tonight after bath. at one point she leaned forward, from her spot of being plastered ((snuggled)) to me, up on her elbows and was really listening!! i loved it, my heart melted. i read, 'i love you because'..it's a fav like 'if you give a pig a pancake' :)
