What Lily says...

At the moment, I am remembering happier days for Lily. This weekend, she has had her first virus. She threw up this morning for the first time and second time. Of course, she is still a child. She threw up while getting ready to slide in the playroom; therefore, the mess went all over the slide. On the bright side, it was pretty easy to clean up. After she threw up, she sat there for a second, then she said, "Shewy, Mama." A few minutes later, she was playing again...kids?....and she threw up again on herself this time. She was extremely upset that her shirt was wet. So, we had to get new clothes on her quickly. But, did that curb her playing enthusiasm. Are you kidding? Now, is she fussier than normal... yes. Is she much needier than normal.. yes. But, did she still pull out the playdoh and demand that we play in the kitchen... yes! Kids are too funny.
One other moment I have to share happened before the sickness this morning....
Lily is speaking in short sentences a lot now. One she loves to say has to do with everyone we know sliding on her slide. So, she starts with herself, then she says, "Mama slide, too." Of course, I slide, too. Then, she starts naming stuffed animals, people who aren't here, and lastly she always wants our cats to slide. The first time she said it, we thought it was so cute that we got two of our cats and forced them to slide for Lily. What were we thinking? So, this morning, she said, "Jo Jo slide, too, Mama." I responded," You want Jo Jo to slide?" Lily replied, "Yes!" Jamie voiced his opinion, "Have you asked Jo Jo if she wants to slide?" Lily quickly replied, "Yes." Then Jamie cameback with this statement, "Well, what did she say?" Lily stopped and stared at Jamie for a split second, then she said, "Meooow." (in her perfect Jo Jo voice.) We cracked up! You never know what children are going to say, do you? Besides, it sounded just like something Jo Jo would say. :0)
