Sometimes I give Navy a bad rap.
She has so many classic naughty stories to tell, that they sometimes overshadow the sweet lovey dovey stories that come from her.
-
Like the time last week when I picked her up from nursery at church and the teacher told me how sweet Navy is. She told me that when another little girl was crying because her mom had left, Navy walked over to her and hugged her and tried to cheer her up with one of the toys she had hoarded.
-
Or the time I was driving with her and she sweetly said to me, “Mom…my feet have sparkles. Can you make them not sparkly?” I told her to put them in front of her and when the blood got to them, they would stop having sparkles.
-
Or how the second she sees Dash, she says, “Hi…HI….hi….HHHIIIIIII….hI….hi.hi.hi…..HI!” She gets it from me because I say hi to him about three times in a row. She took it a step further, and makes him grin ear to ear each time.
-
Or how every time she goes outside, she comes back in with a flower for me.
-
Or when she came to me yesterday to tell me she had the hiccups and wanted them to stop. I told her to take three sips of water (I actually take ten myself, but the less sips, the less possibility for mess) to get rid of them. After her sips, she looked at me with pretty sad eyes to say, “Mom, I took *hiccup* my three sips, and the are not gone *hiccup*. SEE!”
-
Or how no matter what she has, she passes one out to everyone. Like when my mom gave her five one dollar bills for something the other day, she started passing one out to everyone in the room.
-
Or when I asked her to change Dash’s diaper and she happily obliges. It is a crack up to watch — especially when Dash is in crazy movement mode. But she just talks him through it and gets the job kind of done. I re-tighten the tabs at the end, but she gives me a good foundation.
-
Honestly, she is an absolute joy to be around. She is everyone’s favorite thing, and I am SO glad she is mine!
