optimistic

The other day Ellie was so sick all morning. She laid around the house in different spots with a bowl nuzzled up to her side for emergencies. After what seemed like her 10th time of taking advantage of the ever dependable bowl, I started to clean her face and I said......
"Ellie I'm so sorry your sick. I feel so bad for you."
(she smiles and replies) " Don't feel bad for me mom. I'm really happy when I'm not throwing up."
Well okay ?? What do you really say to that?
I am glad she can look at the bright side of things, what a little optimist. I love her energy and love for life. She makes me happy.

It's the worst when kids get sick. What a cute little attitude though. I hope she's feeling better! And, that picture is too cute. All of your photos look like you should be in ads--they're so great!

At least she had a bucket and you didn't get to clean it up all day. That would make me happy:) She is too cute. I can't wait for her to start school. Watch out boys. Love the pic. (Not that I've ever seen one on your blog that I don't)
