I really need to get on here and blog more than I do. These days, it's hard to find the balance between writing, scrapbooking and being otherwise creative -- all while being a full-time mom to Makela, a part-time fundraiser with Angel Faces AND a volunteer regional officer for Delta Gamma. Whew! I'm busy, but it IS fun.
So in the interest of keeping it (relatively) short and sweet, here's a funny story from last Friday (Feb. 27th). We were walking back to the car at Nobel Park, after having great fun on the tire swing. Makela took off her fleece and started pretending to be a bumblebee, with the sleeve as her "stinger." She was buzzing and then started pretending to sting me, saying "STING! STING! STING!" Every time she did this, I would say "Ow!" It didn't take long for Makela to lose herself to the giggles.
When we got to the parking lot, Makela automatically reached up to hold my hand (my training is paying off!). She let out another "STING!" with her left hand and "stung" me, which of course resulted in my immediate response of "Ow!"
Without even pausing, Makela looked up at me and stated in a voice of complete reason and deadpan humor: "Mommy, NEVER hold on to a bumblebee's hand."
