My Mommy, My Hero

a post by Sariah

I love my mommy. She does fun stuff with me like eating my belly, which I think is funny. She also takes me neat places like the library, playgroups & the open gym with the fun bouncy house & foam pits. Today she drew me a dog in a hat to color. She also lets me watch George & Yellow Hat & Charkie on the tv and reads me George before I go to bed in my George jammies. She gives me nannies (bananas) and gapes (grapes) to eat and also cheerios & milk.

I want to be just like my mommy. That's why I watch her constantly. I always help her exercise in the mornings. During meals I make sure to eat when she eats & drink my water when she drinks hers. I even like to follow her into the bathroom and sit on my stool while she's in there. I count my bath fish, nine, ten, even though Mommy says there are only three. And I point out all the goldfish on the shower curtain. Then I say "bye water" when she flushes the potty. Some day soon I'll use the potty, too, and be just like Mommy.

Sometimes Mommy does things I don't like, like making me sit at the table and wait for her and Daddy to finish eating, or brushing the tangles out of my hair. I still love her. I know she still loves me even when I only take a 10 min. nap, bang on the door and then say "all done sleeping," or use pens to color on important mommy papers.

I always try to use the computer when Mommy isn't looking so I can be just like her. So don't tell her I was on the blog...
