Princess tantrums.

Oh, these are no good.  No good at all. On one hand i have been expecting these for quite awhile and so its not a big deal. On the other hand you are so big that it makes controlling you a lot harder. I have found that a pleasant face and tone even oif the qords themselves are still harsh works a lot better on not overwhelming you and having you ahut down as you are still behind in communication.  But given all the struggles you still are the one cpnsistent thing to bring me pure inadulterated joy in life.
I love you.
Love, your momma,

My disobedient little angel:

Kinsey Jewel, You are testing me for sure right now. My back and my patience are wearing thin. Tomorrow could be a different story, but for today I'd love for someone else to take over. You are even testing Grandma and Grandpa! Please learn the difference between "Yes" and "No" instead of saying no to everything. Please learn to eat what we offer instead of just asking for "noodles" or "chicken". Please understand that I'm doing my best and always trying to improve and do what's best for you and our family. Please grow up and still be my baby at the same time.
I know you can't, but I wish.
Love,
Your Momma,
Heather Jo

Pee-Paw

Just a couple of days ago (the 7th) was your Daddy's 35th birthday. He took you up to Portland to visit your grandparents (his parents) and Aunt Emily (his sister), I had to work so I didn't see you for almost 2 whole days!
So as usual you obsessed with both the dog and cat, and telling everyone where your eyes, nose, mouth, and cheek are on your face. So much so that you let Jack the dog lick you all over while you said "Nu!" over and over again, which is your word for tongue.
That made me giggle when your Dad told me that story. But what made me almost pee myself, is when he told me you are now calling grandpa "Pee-Paw". So we pulled out the new calendar Aunt Carol had made, and sure enough when I asked you who Grandpa was you very certainly said "Pee-Paw!"
You are so cute I can barely stand it!
Love,
Your Momma,
Heather Jo
