This little redhead girl I know...

If you don't live with her, you are missing out!
She is constantly saying something funny, 
wondering aloud something funny, or doing something funny!
I crack up just thinking about her.
She wanted to pose with her blankie--the blankie that used to be pink,
but is now a faded gray/pink color.  
She uses it every day and takes it in the car with us
It has been patched and sewn up about 400 times by Nana and Grandma
It is in need of more patching--she puts her fingers through the holes to comfort herself.

Although she seems so little, Halle is now a big girl.
She is potty-trained (hooray) and with that has come more independence
While I am excited to have 3/4 of my potty training done, I am a little sad
This girl keeps growing and getting bigger and I will miss 
my fun companion when she goes to preschool next year.
I never thought I would wish they would grow up more slowly,
but here I am--wishing she would stop growing and stay just as she is.

I wish I knew Halle better - she seems like my kind of gal.

P.S. I haven't checked the blog for awhile. I LOVE the new banner.
