Why Annada thrives in Omaha…
Playing in Meme’s pots
Picking up berries that fell from the tree to eat
Playing with chalk
Pepe sneaking Annada a chocolate chip cookie
I have a Pepe story I hope I never forget. We were at Spaghetti Works. Annada has learned how to get out restaurant high chairs, and every 5 minutes or so was standing up. I would put her back in her chair and she would spend the next couple of minutes getting out.
After a few rounds it was time to get salad. So when I turned to see Annada standing up again I said, “Okay, you can get out and come with me.” Annada broke out into a HUGE grin.
So Pepe narrated for her a little song,”I won, I won, I won.” Annada started dancing in her chair, smiling, and singing, “I won, I won, I won, I won.” After about a minute of that, Annada sings, totally unassisted, “Me, Me, Me, Me!” We were laughing so hard we couldn’t see!
(Oh yes… We’ve got trouble. Right here…)
Visiting the zoo
Seeing birds
Spending time with Daddy
Playing with new toys (to her – this was Marc’s!)
Lots of Grandpa time
Learning fashion tips from Grandma
Great food and the freedom to make messes
Lots and lots of LOVE
