Our Sweet Girl


Today when Lily got up from nap she was just chattering away. I had to slow her down to actually understand what she was saying. She was so excited and began, "Mom, I have a plan," I immediately thought that it would have to do with going outside, having some kind of ice cream from Dairy Queen or something so odd I would just shake my head.

But NO.
It was none of those things.

She continued tell me, "We can move my bookcase here, we can move the rocking chair into your room and Emma's crib can go right here. Then we can put the extra bed in Emma's room so when Nana comes to visit she doesn't have to sleep on the green couch anymore."

My first response was, "You want to share a room with Emma??"
Ha. If she only knew what she was asking for.

When we were in NC in August, Lily and Emma shared a room. Some nights Emma would wake up and the only thing she wanted was to be in bed with Lily. They would sleep together and some mornings I would go in to find them cuddling, holding hands or completely all over each other. Ever since then they both are very distraught during bedtime when they are split up to go to their own rooms. Mike and I have discussed this but know that Emma needs to grow-up a bit in her bedtime routine and sleeping habits before we would do this to our sleepin' lovin' Lily.

Plus, how sweet is she that she's thinking of Nana! And, to plan it all out!
Lily, you continue to amaze us!
Love you sweet girl.
