Nora,
You are still baby girl around here for the moment, although that is going to change in a few months. How I've loved having you as my baby these past couple of years.
You are emerging more into a little girl role, so fiercely independent with a "do-it-myself" attitude.
You call yourself "Rora" although you are starting to say "Nora" on occasion and it makes me so sad because we've all grown accustomed to our little "Rora."
You play for hours on end with the same toys, mostly anything with people or animals that you can role play and imagine with. Your favorite toys right now are: your tea pot with little Squinkie girl and dogs, your magnet dollhouse, your grocery cart and babies, and the Little People nativity set. You have started calling one of the Little People wise men "Sadie" (the one who carries "syrup" or so you say).
You also love to read books. You always want a book in the car and then read again in bed every night. We discovered the solution to getting you to go to bed without a fuss was to let you read before shutting off your light. You also read in the morning when you wake up. Your favorite books are: Babar, Huckle (Richard Scarry), or anything ballet/princess.
You are such a girlie girl! The other day we were talking about all the Disney princesses and I asked who your favorite was. You chimed in without skipping a beat, "Me! Rora princess!" I laughed so hard. You definitely think you are a little princess around here.
You LOVE to sing. You are constantly singing songs at the top of your lungs...in the grocery store, in the car, in bed, at the table etc... Your favorite songs to sing are: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Mary Had a Little Lamb (or Nora Had a Little Lamb), Jesus Loves Me, and the ABC song. You love for us to "sing together."
You are still a little eater, always asking to "eat sumpin." You develop loves for certain foods and they become your staple for weeks. First it was macaroni and cheese, next couscous, and now your current favorite is cottage cheese. You always love a bowl of cereal, especially at night...just like your mama.
You are such a joy...something I say again and again.
Love you dearly,
Mama
