The other morning was a typical morning. I had just arrived home from a night of work. I was immediately greeted at the back door by "little bit" screeching with glee to see her mommy! Oh what a glorious site. Her little self came teetering around the corner, smiling from ear to ear (of course behind her pacifier), arms lifted in the air as to say "Hi, mommy, I've missed you so much...please pick me up!"
Ian was in his bathroom all by himself brushing his teeth and preparing for another day of school. Justin had already fed the kids breakfast, and the lunches were packed and ready to go. I proceeded to help Ian dress for school. Daddy had his clothes, underwear, socks and shoes already laid out. Ian said "good morning Mommy!, I've been a good boy and I slept in daddy's bed last night!" He was genuinely happy to see me, and his little joyful voice is just such affirmation that I have the greatest little boy ever!
After dressing Ian, we returned back into the kitchen where London was dressed for school and playing in her favorite drawer full of mommy's kitchen gadgets. Justin returned in the kitchen with the dog's food. Because it was chilly outside, Justin decided to feed Chloe in the kitchen floor, so she would not be cold outside...she is such a spoiled dog!
Before I knew what was happening, London had made herself over to Chloe's food bowl! A BIG NO, NO! Chloe is a bit funny with her food to say the least, as well as being scared to death of the kids. BUT NOT TODAY! You would have thought London and Chloe had been best friends forever! It was too cute. London had her hands full of food and was ever so tenderly feeding them to her new best friend...one by one! Chloe did not mind at all! It was as if she was enjoying the extra bit of spoiling by being hand fed. It was an instantaneous friendship between London and Chloe. This NEVER would have happened between Ian and Chloe! I've decided it must be a girl thing!
