She used a particular corner to sooth herself by rubbing it on her lip and that corner finally started to fray. I folded it over a time or two and sewed it, and she still looked for that corner every time. Ha - we called it "Mr. Corner." It's so sweet that you took some time to document this time in your girl's lives. I love the way Sophie lined those shells up. Just so sweet!

I think it's so ...Such a darling post, Audrey. I think it's so important to capture the little moments in the lives of our children. They grow up so fast. <br />I had seen the shells in your recent posts and had been admiring your header. Sophie made a lovely display. And I love that she sneaks a flashlight under the covers to read. And Clara's little doll baby is so cute!<br />I remember years ago when our extended MacBeath family went to Baker's Creek near Lake Louise. Terry and I were staying in a cabin with Bertie and Peter, my youngest sister and her husband, and their two very young girls.<br /><br />They decided to let their youngest girl Natalie sleep in a big girl's bed bed by herself. She was barely walking, but they surrounded her with pillows, and her sister Sara had a twin bed in the same room. <br /><br />I can remember hearing them go to sleep, laughing and talking for a long time. I was thinking "What on Earth are they talking about? Natalie can't even talk yet." <br />Later that night I woke upon hearing a noise. I went out to the kitchen, and here's Naddy standing up on a high stool reaching for an apple in a basket of apples that was hanging in the kitchen. She calmly clambered down and started eating it. I whisked her back to bed after she had finished. I told her parents the next morning, and they were shocked because she was barely walking. Ha! Obviously she was more capable than we realized.<br /><br />I will always treasure my memories of the talking and the laughter of the two young girls going to sleep. And also Naddy on top of that high stool reaching for the apple. She always has been and always will be one determined young lady. <br />Have a happy day!
