Cecilia Milestones, Statements and Stories

This isn't close to covering everything - but I've jotted these things down over the last few years and wanted to have a place to store them :) more to come!

January 2014:  CC statements
Boy there is a very long list - but most recently she told me that she loved her Daddy best and when I reacted somewhat sad - she smiled and said, "It's okay Mommy, it's going to work out."  I say that to Colin regularly when he's fussy.  haha.  The next night she only wanted to be with Mommy and Daddy was the 'bad guy' - but I do see the future of a Daddy's girl - no doubt :)

Fall 2013: Parent/Teacher conference:
CC is a leader.  CC likes to read to the class (or imagine she is reading to the class).  "CC is the real deal - what you see is what you get."

April 9, 2013:  Story from Saint Joseph's Preschool:
Mike and I had a parent-teacher teleconference with Ms. Nicole of the Bears Class a few weeks ago - CC received alot of rave reviews, the one thing that stood out ot us was when Ms. Nicole said, "CC is a leader" - that she is!  We were also told that CC has empathy, that when new kids join the class or a child is sad, she is concerned for them and takes care of them.  :)

March 31, 2013:  CC Statements: 
"Mommy, if you and Daddy don't  go to bed, I'm going to have a big problem with the both of you."
"Last morning...."

March 22, 2012:  CC Statements:
A few months ago at nighttime I'd ask Cecilia what she was going to dream of - "butterflies and flowers" - always blue, sometimes orange, purple, etc.  When she wakes in the morning she comes out saying "butterflies" in the sweetest voice "and blue flowers" :)When I was14-15 weeks pregnant with Colin, CC started telling folks about "baby in mommy's tummy" - in the last week 15-16 weeks she kisses and hugs and pats baby morning, day and night "baby friend" :)
