Where's Mommy Going?

Sarah left for out of town around 11:00 AM yesterday. Ashtyn and I waved to mommy from the front porch. Emersyn though was very upset about this new turn of events. She is quite used to waving goodbye to daddy for a couple of days, but mommy has never left in this way before. She cried big wet tears. I just snuggled her.

About 2 hours later we were playing around upstairs when Emersyn runs out of Sarah's scrapbooking room with a picture yelling, "Mommy, Mommy Picture." She had found an older picture of Sarah from when she was director of a child care center. It was one of those school pictures that they take of the teacher too. Emersyn was so excited. That picture went everywhere with her yesterday. When she went to bed last night the picture was carefully placed by Emersyn on her pillow right next to her head. It was about the sweetest thing I had ever seen.

She hasn't asked about the pic today. When I got her out of bed it was no longer on her pillow. For my own purposes I looked under the crib for it, but was unsuccessful. I'm sure if she remembers it later though, we will be turning over their room to find it.

They call her Super Mer!

Favorite Quotes from my two year old:

"I'm not a little Bug-A-Boo."

Ask Emersyn: Emer, What do they call you?
She responds: "Super Mer"

"Dada, I went poo poo in the potty."

"I want some pizza too." With a pout on her face as she realizes that I snicked a piece in the car and she has to wait until we get home.

"I love you too, dada"
