Growing Up!

I feel like in the last week Sunshine has done a lot of "growing up". It seems like she is changing right before my eyes. Her vocabulary has exploded recently. She is using and remembering new words daily...it's so amazing how much their little brains soak up! Today I dropped her off at the nursery at church while I went to Mom to Mom. After I handed her over the door and they set her down, she took a few steps and then turned around a waved "bye-bye" to me. Although it was very sweet, I have to admit it made me a little sad. There was not even a twinge of hesitation on her part, she was ready to go play (which I should be so thankful for). Another "growing up"moment occured 2 days ago. I put her down for her morning nap and after about 45 minutes of her chatting away in her crib I decided to take a peek and see if she was even looking sleepy. Much to my surprise, I found her reading to her Pooh bear. She looked at me as if to say "Why are you interrupting us?". So I closed the door and let her read to Pooh until she fell asleep. What a joy and blessing it is to watch her grow and develop...we are loving every moment of it!!
