During the election in November, Addysen was asking me about what the President did. After explaining a little bit about what the President was, she asked
who the President was. I told her that it was a man named President Obama to which she responded "Oh! Like one of the states!" It took me a minute and I realized she was thinking of Alabama. :-)
Haven is Miss Encouragement...she is always saying that she likes my shirt or my necklace is so pretty, etc. or I'll do something and she'll say "Good job Mommy!" A couple weeks ago, out of no where she said with much emphasis "You look SO pretty today, Mommy!" Such a sweet little girl she is!
Haven says often "I tink Bee-ewle love me!" Yep...I think so too. :-)
After my Grandpa passed away the beginning of December, Addysen and I had quite a few conversations about death, heaven, etc. She asked what does "die" mean, where do we go when we die, will we see Great Grandpa again, etc. She only grasps a little of it and asks the same questions over and over. One night when she was going to bed, she was asking a lot of those questions again and after I basically explained the gospel to her in a 4 year old way, she was quiet for a minute and I thought, wow...she's really getting this. And then she said "Mommy, I'm not going to pick my nose ever again." Guess we aren't quite there yet...ha!
Anytime during December that we would be out after dark, the girls would say with much excitement over and over and over (and over and over :-) ) every time they would see a house decorated at all, "Look! There's some pretty lights!"
Haven is starting to grasp the concept of "if/then's" and has started trying to communicate them. Her version of them though are things like this "If I call you, I call you." "If I find my B, I find my B." "If I kiss Brielle, I kiss Brielle." If I need to wash my hands, I need to wash my hands." It's very informative...ha!
