Yoga
Nora lee knows that I meditate and do yoga and asks me questions about both. On a few occasions she has done yoga with me. Today she asked for me to put on a yoga video so she could do yoga while I did some work on the computer. She came in after a few minutes and said, "I can't keep my legs straight." I laughed and told her that it all takes practice. She may have inherited my tight hamstrings because I think most kids are like jelly and, just like her mama, she can't touch her toes. Ah well.
Cologne and Alone Time
A few short stories...
1.) When Nora Lee gets tucked into bed by Matt she has requested that he spray some of his cologne on her. She said, "I smell my shirt when I miss you daddy."
2.) My mom was visiting for the weekend and when she left Nora Lee got very upset and began to cry. She ran to her room and said, "I need to cry alone in my room because I am sad that grandma left." So I left the room and a few minutes later she came out and said, "I'm done crying now."
3.) Last week I was tucking Nora Lee into bed and I was exhausted. I was desperate for sleep too and she was using every excuse to prolong the going-to-bed process. I looked at her and said, "Please, please go to sleep! I am so tired and I can't go to sleep until you do! " I started to cry in my exhaustion and then she started to cry. She said, "You can't cry because I am crying. I am frustrated because you are grouchy."
4.) Today Matt was away all day and at one point she stopped and said, "Is daddy home? I hear a daddy noise."
