Growing up

This sweet precious little baby girl will be 4 years old next Monday. I can hardly believe it. As I type she is sitting in the floor playing with her Grammie. She is just getting so big. Today we had a conversation about her learning to snap her fingers. It went a little something like this:

Me: Jayci did you show your friends and teacher that you can snap your fingers?

Jayci: OH yeah I did. They were very impressed!

Me: (In shock she just said impressed). Yeah they were. It is very impressive that I can do that.

I just laughed and laughed. She just says some of the funniest things. I really want to get better about "writing" them down.

Also this week we have started a book called "Teach your child how to read in 100 Easy Lessons." I don't know about easy but it sure is working my patience! We actually started a couple of weeks ago and did it for two days. After those two days I decided to put it up for a little bit and start fresh. Today went really well! I am trying to keep things in perspective. Little things are not worth fighting over. If it takes us a little longer to get it done or if we just don't do it one night I'm not going to sweat it. It is just not productive for me to get mad and end up so frustrated at her or her in tears.

My last post was about how hard school is for Jay's and my relationship. Well, needless to say school is also hard on Jayci's and I relationship. I am stressed and am bad about taking things out on my family. I know horrible. However, I am really trying to stop doing this. I know last semester of school is kind of a late start but I guess it is better than never.

Anyway, back to my sweet baby girl. I love her so much and she is growing up so fast! Next week I will post a longer post about her and her birthday.
