Mind of her own

Will post about Christmas and our Florida trip later today, but first, Anna's breakfast story...

We were indulging in cinnamon buns on the couch this morning as a New Years Day treat. Anna had her plate all cut up, Greg and I had ours. Anna wanted some of Greg's cinnamon bun but we told her not until your plate is all gone, then you can have more. So Anna takes her 7 cut up pieces of cinnamon bun and transfers them 1 by 1 to my empty plate. She then takes her plate over the Greg and asks for more please. Greg looks at me and says, "She ate ALL of that that quick", I whispered to him what she did and he laughed, so he gave he a piece of his cinnamon bun. Well after she has Greg's piece on her plate, Anna comes back over to my plate, grabs all 7 cut-up pieces in a fist full and puts them back onto her plate. Then she was happy. She had her original pieces and her new piece from Greg all by following the directions and not whining.

It's just amazing to watch these little people begin to process and figure out problems.
