Xandra announced the other day that she wants to be a teacher when she grows up. I was blown away. I think that would be so awesome. I think she'd be very good at it... at least by her doll-teaching standards. :)
(She's got some cookie remnants on her mouth...)
She is very focused when she is "teaching" her dolls. She has all the patience in the world. And she is very caring. It makes me so proud of her. As I What makes me even happier about this, is knowing what an incredible big sister she will be. I have no delusions that there will be plenty of sibling rivalry. Our quiet little home will soon become very chaotic. :) As the oldest of five kids myself (I'm older by a range of 7-12 years to the rest of my brothers & sister), I know what it will be like for her to be a big sister. I hope I'll be able to help her, but I don't think I'll be needed a whole lot! She's got a good head on her shoulders. She's made this parenting thing way too easy! Most of the time, she takes care of me! ;) I love that girl of mine!
What a beautiful girl you have!!! And, I LOVE how she teaches her dolls. My Anna Grace is very much the same. When she was younger, she would "clean" her room by arranging every doll and stuffed animal in friend groupings and each one would have a book propped open that it was reading!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to us sharing our journeys to our little ones together!! You little one is absolutely precious! How exciting to make new friends!! :)
