Sweet girl

I know I owe a long entry about all the amazing Stella developments and what a great holiday season we had. Stay tuned for some hilarious Santa comments. But first, two great conversations that happened today...

This morning Stella was a little sick with a cold and cough. She had a playdate with two friends scheduled for after school but I told her that she should tell Ranny if she wasn't feeling up to it and they could just come straight home. Moments later Stella said, "Can we go ice skating after school?" to which I replied, "No. If you are too sick to go on a playdate, you are too sick to go ice skating" to which she replied, "But ice skating cheers me up."

Then tonight as I was finishing up putting Stella to bed she asked if she and Vivian were ever going to share a bed. I asked if she wanted to knowing perfectly well that the answer would be yes. That girl LOVES her sister and loves being a sister. Then I asked her if she wanted one big bed they could both sleep in or bunk beds. She answered, "Bunk beds and I am going to be on top." Then she thought for a few moments and added, "But I don't care. If Vivian wants to be on top, I'll be on the bottom." Sweetest older sister ever.
