An Ella brag

Ella has been super sweet the past few days . This week on our way to a friends house, from the back seat of the car Ella said to me " Mommy, you are cute and funny and take care of me and I love you". That just made my week. I don't need anything else for mothers day now. But that's not all.

Then one night I went to a Moms club event and left Ella with Ben. I thought I would be home in enough time to say goodnight to her but had such a good time socializing I lost track of the time. When I got home Ella was asleep but Ben said she had a melt down right before bed time. She was crying because I wasn't home to say good night to her. Even though I felt bad I didn't get to say goodnight to her it was nice that she missed me so much. Since I have been pregnant I have not been the fun parent. When Ben gets home from work he is fresh,exciting and playful. Where as I am tired, achey and irritable. So I have been feeling like Ben is the her favorite. It was nice to hear that she missed me so much.

And these pictures here in the post is of Ella reading to me and the baby. I told her Mommy was tired so she said, "You relax on the couch mommy and I will read you and baby a story. " Then she proceeded to cover me up with one of her blankets. It was by far my favorite week. Ella has been so sweet and affectionate lately. It has been a perfect beginning to a mothers day weekend.
