Natalie’s Sweet Side
I thought I’d share how sweet Natalie is, just in case my last post had you thinking we had a terror on our hands! Aside from our battlegrounds, Natalie is kind and loving. Some examples:
Every morning, Natalie finds Chris’ glasses on the windowsill in the bathroom and brings them to him.
She blows Daddy kisses when we drop him off at the train station.
The other day at play group, Natalie found her friend Robert’s sippy cup. I asked her to give it to him, which she did. For the rest of the afternoon, whenever she saw his cup, she would run over to give it to him.
She says “please.” We’re working on “thank you.”
Last night we were looking at pictures of family we have on the wall. Natalie looked at a picture of Nama, said something close to “Nama” and did the “more” sign. (Nama has been away for the last couple of weeks and Natalie clearly misses her!)
She kisses her favorite characters in books.
She likes to share her food.
When we pick up Daddy from the train station, she gets very excited and says “Dada!” over and over. Then she says “Dada! Mama! Dada! Mama!”again and again. The inflection in her voice is so sweet, she might as well be saying “I love you.”
