she amazes me.

It is amazing how fast lilli is learning! Little children truly see and learn everything we do!

I was packing this evening preparing for our trip back to boise when Lilli picked up my flat iron. At first she thought the plug looked like a cell phone, so she put it up to her ear and said "Hi!" {something she does with my phone anytime she can get her hands on it} She then looked at it for a second longer, picked up the whole thing, and started 'straightening' her hair with it! She's probably seen me fix my hair a handful of times, so i was really surprised by her! Cason and I definitely have to be even more careful about what we say and do around her from now on! hopefully she'll learn good things, like folding her arms for prayer all by herself {which she's been doing for a couple of weeks now}...i always feel like a good momma when i see that!

She's learned several words this week alone. They are:

-Up

-Shoe {"sh-ee"}

-Jessie {"essie"}

She'll also point at something and say "Wha tha" which we think is "What's that?"

{for those of you wondering, no, she has not said 'momma' yet.}

I love watching her learn...who knows what she'll be saying next week!

{Side note: it's a resolution of mine to catch up, and keep up my blog, so be prepared to read a lot more from me in 2011!}
