Funny Interaction

Jenna (3) and Mackenzie (4) are conflicted about whether or not they can be friends when they're sisters, too. We've told them that they can be both. Often, we hear them arguing, "you're not my friend!" Thank goodness they haven't tried to not be sisters yet! :-)

Anyhow, today, they had a most amusing interaction. Mackenzie came running to me, all upset, and said, "Jenna said I'm not her friend anymore!" I assured Mackenzie that Jenna would change her mind shortly. (She usually does.) Mackenzie must have gone back and relayed this message to Jenna, because a few moments later, Jenna came and found me. She then said, "Mommy, I won't change my mind!" Alan, who was nearby, and I had to stifle our laughter. One of life's amusing and short-lived moments in a household full of drama! (From left to right: Mackenzie, Sierra, Jenna)

Hurray!

I know it's been ages since I posted, but the big news of the day, and this is how we'll remember, is that Sierra, at 19 months, is attempting to potty train herself! She went three times today on the potty, and the last time, after her bath, she came and said "Potty!" to me. I took her, she went, and we were all so proud! Yay!!!!!!
