Vignettes from the week

This week...

Amélie told her teacher 'Please don't tell my mom I didn't nap today'... Showing some theory of mind this little one! I am sure that this is the first of many 'please don't tell my mom' episodes we will hear about...

Amélie told us that the one that reads 'The Little Engine That Could' best is her daddy. Fair given that mommy hasn't read it to her yet, and that she hasn't heard Vovó tell the story yet... Vovó told this story to her son many times and surely she didn't teach him all her tricks...;)

Amélie spent her last day at her daycare today... Starting next week, she will be in a new preschool, but with all her friends who are transitioning with her, and with Ben, her great teacher who will move with them, she is beyond thrilled to officially be a BIG girl now... Which made me think that toddlerhood is such a special time, and maybe the only time when all girls feel proud of being 'BIG GIRLS', later on the same phrase might not be often used or taken as a compliment...

New Pictures from our girlie girl...

Amélie has been enjoying being as girlie as possible lately:







And she wants to be a Princess now, HELP! Oh maybe, I should say 'Watch out William of Wales', knowing Amélie he might not stand a chance to say 'No' :)!
