Smart Stories

I'm going to jump on the bandwagon with all the other moms that claim the brilliance of their children...

This morning after dressing Sidney Kate and getting her ready for daycare, pigtails and all, I started getting ready for work. Sidney Kate was roaming free, as days of her hanging out on the bed (safely) are long gone. She toddled from the kitchen to our bedroom with one pink Converse shoe raised up in the air. I took the shoe from her and told her if she wanted to wear those today she'd have to have socks. She retreated to the kitchen and I continued to get dressed, not thinking anything about our conversation. Moments later she came back down the hall with yesterday's sock raised up to give me. I stopped everything at that moment and carried her to get fresh socks so we could put on the shoes she so wanted to wear. All along the way bragging to her and Daddy about how smart she was. It was the most precious little thing in the world, and while I know all babies are smart and wonderful-it's priceless to have those moments with her!!
