Addie knows...

So we have a few pictures in our home. At the bottom of the stairs is this one. It is a ainting by Del Parson and we love it.

The other night, Addie was fussy and just being a pill. Mike took her for a few minutes so I could get dinner ready. I heard him talking very quietly to her. He said, "Addie, who is that?" I looked up. Addie stopped fussing got real quiet and then smiled. She reached to the picture. Mike kept asking her who it was and she just kept smiling. She then started to talk to the picture and kept reaching. I walked over there and Mike asked if I had ever shown her the picture before and sadly, I realized that I hadn't. I got a little teary eyed at this small experience. Today, I showed her a few other pictures we have in our home, and none got the same reaction. She knows who He is and it is my job to keep her close to Him. Oh, the things I have learned from this beautiful child.

SHOES!!

So... I have a shoe girl on my hands.




She doesn't mind wearing shoes, they just don't stay on her little feet!
As she has learned to scoot around though, she has fallen in love with other people's shoes! Beware of Addie at your feet, she will eat your shoes!
