Brooklynn is staying with us while Joyce recuperates and we are having so much fun. She is a happy little girl and she is definitely ALL GIRL! She is SMART SMART SMART! She sings her ABC's and many other songs. She counts, knows a lot of colors and LOVES to read books. Mostly, I have noticed, she likes to be in charge. She reminds me of a little two year old girl that lived with us about 22 years ago. ;) I love every minute with Brooklynn! We have her sleeping in Eli's room and it didn't take long for me to figure out that they would NEVER go to sleep at the same time. I have to put Eli down first and about 30 minutes later I can put Brooklynn in her bed. These two little kidz are so cute together I think I am getting just a little snip-it of what it would be like to have twins. You don't get too much done and you need to know where they are at all times. They always want what the other one has and they can both pinch pretty hard. :) They really do get along and you can tell they love each other a ton. Oh, and... they seem to poop at the same time. Well, not really at the same time but one right after the other - when you've already put the wipes away and taken the first stinky diaper to the outside trash. They love to be outside and get dirty but at the end of the day when it's bath time, Brooklynn likes to pour water all over Eli but she doesn't like it when it's time to wash her hair. But the lo losh seems to make up for it. She is the cutest little girl and I love her so much. She makes everyone feel special just by saying our names and giving us hugs and kisses. And we are loving having her here! I wish it were different circumstances that brought Brooklynn to visit us. I just hope Joyce can feel better and know that her little girl is being well taken care of.
