In case you haven't heard. This little girl is FULL of amazing feats. Only two of which include...
Making a silly face in the dryer compartment while Mommy & Daddy are in repair mode. |
Riding a rocking horse WHILE coloring AND watching TV. Quite the multi-tasker she is. |
Among MANY other talents of course. Addison is in the "Mommy, mommy, mommy, watch this!" phase. It's hilarious at times and frustrating at times.
Hilarious because I remember being at that age and truly being convinced that every.single.thing I did was amazing and thus everyone should watch. Jump into a pool?.....amazing. Turn in a circle?.....amazing. Do a somersault?....uh.maze.ing.
Why would I ever want to miss it? Oh yeah, because I have another child that requires some attention here and there. Granted he IS a pretty low maintenance child and used to being the 2nd by this point in his life....but there are a few needs he has that must be met eventually. Somehow, I have to now learn how to meet his needs while also staring non-stop at Addison as she performs her tricks for me.
Annnnndddd, I think I'm finally getting pretty good at it. Because heaven help me, she can really scold you if you look away....even for a millisecond. So grateful I have such an amazing child!

I had a few just like Addison who required my undivided attention and I know the looks that can be given. I felt guilty if I didn't watch every second and guilty if I did because another child suffered. But the good news is: Now those memories are precious and bring a smile to my face. Hang in there Shannon - it's worth it! Love you!
