The last few weeks Ava's growth and learning have exploded. It has been fun watching her learn and seeing her personality continue to emerge. Ava is super chatty and is learning new words everyday. Sometimes she amazes me with the things she will say and do. I just think to myself, "when did she learn that?". All of these experiences have created many memories and I want to make sure I preserve a few. Here are a couple stories that demonstrate two parts of Ava's personality...
The first story shows off Ava's sense of humor. She really is a silly little girl and is turning into quite a ham at home. The other day during lunch we were eating one of Ava's favorite, Macaroni & Cheese with peas & broccoli, and I was explaining how eating works. I told her the food goes in our mouth, down our throat, and into our tummy. She looked at me kind of funny and then proceeded to feed her belly button the next bite. It cracked me up and she laughed too.
The next story shows off Ava's compassionate side. This morning during breakfast I bumped my elbow hard on the chair and yelled, "Ooww". Ava asked me if I was okay. I told her I was and then she asked to kiss my elbow to make it feel better. This made me smile and melted my heart. Ava is a sweet and caring girl. She likes to make others feel better and is always ready to help out. I can't wait to see what wonderful things she will do with this gift.
