She's growing by leaps and bounds.. you know that moment when babies do something so that you know, HEY! There's a real little person in that itty bitty body They do something that they've not done before, and you look at them and realize they did it consciously, they meant to, and then you know they're thinking, reasoning, a real honest to goodness personality, mind, a real person! (not that they're not, just it's more obvious when they start doing things)
Tonight she tried to pull herself up onto the couch. That was neat to watch, but then later.. Stan was holding her in the kitchen and I had been out on the porch with Lisa and Bonnie. I came in and started past them, but then I stopped and leaned over to say hi to Maegan, her eyes were glued to me, twinkling, just sparkling, and she on purpose, fully knowing what she was doing, reached out with her arms for me to take her - leaned that little body towards me - She wanted her mammy!
SHE MEANT IT!
*laughs*
That thrilled me! Her eyes were so bright, she was so pleased with herself.
She's something else!
