Oh my little Madeline! She is such a source of entertainment for Marty and me. I thought I'd share a couple of little funnies that have happened with her recently, seeing as I just did a whole post in little brother! :)
As you know if you've been following my blog, Maddie is going to be a flower girl in a couple of weeks at our friends' wedding. This whole wedding thing has been in the back of her mind I guess, because every once in awhile, she'll say something about being a flower girl. Well, the other night, Marty, Maddie and I were watching "Jon & Kate Plus 8" (one of mine and Maddie's favorite shows!!) and it was the episode where they all were in Hawaii renewing their wedding vows. As serious as a heart-attack, Maddie looked and Marty and me and said, "I wanna get married." WHAT?!?! We both bust out laughing and Marty quickly said, "You will a long time from now! But until then, you are married to ME!" That sweet, silly goose!
Just tonight, she was helping Marty build a fire in the fireplace for the second time this week, and apparently he's taught her some of the basics. Because tonight, she handed him the wood and said, "Let's build a teapot!" He told her, it's called a teepee, not teapot, but it was so funny to hear her. Then, a little later, he was messing with the logs and pushed them around and she said, "what did you do to the teapot?" She's got that stuck in her mind I guess.
I know these stories probably aren't as funny to you all as they are to us parents, but she truly has a silly-hearted spirit. It's precious. I sometimes wish I was a fly on the wall, just to be able to watch her play without her knowing I was there. But knowing her, she'd notice me even as a fly. Nothing gets by her! Hope these put a smile on your face. Oh yeah, the picture above is from P.J. day at our preschool, and she was dancing during the Eddie Coker concert. Love that girl!!! :)
