Does anyone know the song in my title? I grew up listening to my Dad's oldie music--this is a song from the 60's about a guy who has his health restored and is jubulant to be back to his normal self...and that's exactly how I feel! The flu really sucked the energy out of me but I am getting back into our routine and I'm loving life again!
We had a great day at church yesterday-8am service, Sunday school and nursery duty-followed by the most heavenly nap time known to man! Cassie slept from about 1pm-5...amazing! Tim and I were able to rest and do some reading/journalling. It was truly a divine gift! Then, we were even more blessed by a visit from Cassie's favorite Uncle Matt and Tiaboo. We ordered pizza for dinner and had a really sweet time watching Cassie play with the train set they brought her.
Here's a little 'list' of Cassie's most recent discoveries:
She requests songs by saying, "Mimi...B-I-B-I-B"...which means, "Mimi, sing the BIBLE song." We don't want to tell her that she's mispelling Bible...they'll tell her that in school! :)
"Tassie...You Sunshine" means, "Please sing for Cassie, You are my Sunshine" which is a special song Poppi and Mimi sing. The sweetest thing about that song is I have vivid memories of my Dad's Mom, Nana, singing that song to me and Beka. Precious to see MY baby enjoying it now!
She's FINALLY saying 'thank you' which sounds more like, "dank due." She's also added "dinosaur", "turtle" and...well, now that I think about it, I'd be listing way too much if I tried to list all her new words, so let's just agree that she's learning at a good, steady pace.
This morning, we had another "deposit" in the toilet...hooray! Lesson learned, when you ask Cassie if she wants to sit on the potty, DON'T believe her when she says "No". :)
Uh-oh...based on Cassie's current behavior (she's pulling at my pants, saying-"Come on") it looks like I won't have anymore "free time" to type...gotta go do my job (be the best Mom I can be and play with my baby--hey, that rhymes!).
Happy Presidents' Day, by the way!
