I am finding that I am falling in love with this little girl more and more every day. She continues to do things that just touch my heart. I feel so honored to be her mama. Lately when she wants to get my attention, she calls "ma." It is the sweetest thing. Last night she got to bed early, slept until 7:00 (unlike the previous morning-4:30 AM, since her cousin was visiting) and has had a great morning. She ate a good breakfast and lunch and helped me with the linens from all the company we have had. My Sunday School class had blessed me with money to purchase a play kitchen. Other people gave me gifts of dishes and play food. She loves the kitchen and today not only was she making soup, but she also washed all her dishes. May this desire to clean and help continue into her teen years!! :)
We also had fun as she and "babushka" tried on a bunch of size 2T clothes to see what fits. My sister Susan has given me so many things from her daughter and others have also given me so many clothes. She enjoyed it and she was not hesitant to give her opinion on some of the outfits.
She continues to be gentle with the cats and Maxx is definitely her favorite as she not only calls out his name, but will go looking for him. Thank goodness he is a gentle and loving cat.
Tomorrow we will visit my job as so many people have been following my journey and are anxious to meet her!

Natalie is such a cutie!. I am glad she seems to be transitioning so well and calling you Ma. I know that is such a blessing to hear.
How wonderful, Sherri! Sometimes it seems she is quite the ham for pictures. :) What a quick transition she is having, already meeting so many people - that is great, too!
