The Reunion

We got Meg's Doe Doe in the mail on Monday. Brian and I checked it out before we showed it to her and, sure enough, it was the right one. Yea! We gave her the card that the little girl, Honour, had made for her. We started out talking to her about her doe doe and showed her the card and told her about a little girl that had found her Doe Doe. The photo above was snapped right as she was asking if her Doe Doe was in the box.

This is her opening the box.

This is the first look. It's almost like she was checking the Doe Doe out to make sure it was the same one.

Accepted and Reunited.

The picture says it all. She has carried the Doe Doe with her everywhere this week. It is just like before we lost him. All is right in the world again. A few really great quotes from Meg about the Doe Doe. I heard her in the kitchen talking to her Doe Doe and she said "Now that I have found you we can live happily ever after." She told me the next day that she is so happy that she found the Doe Doe because now she doesn't have to cry anymore. It has been really sweet.

Sayings from Meg

Meg told me that when she grew up to be a mommy she wanted to get married to daddy. I told her that was a great idea. She looked very thoughtful for a few seconds and then said, "But if I marry Daddy, where will you and Adin live?"
Brian made us smoothies last Sunday. Meg was sitting on the counter eating hers. Brian was chatting with her. Meg took a big swallow and said "Mmmmm, this is the life"
As we started a trip of errands, Meg asked how many stores we were going to. I proceeded to tell her the list. After I was done, she said, "Mommy, you talk a lot." When she saw the look of shock on my face she said, "It's okay, I talk a lot too because we are girls." Even more shocked, I asked her who told her that girls talk a lot. She said that she just knows that. I talked to Brian later and he said he never told her that either.
While learning the song I am a Child of God she would always sing "and he has sent me ears"
After learning the song I am a Child of God she turned to Brian and sang "I am a child of Brian"
I can't throw this in the garbage because my legs are so tired.
I was blowing up balloons for Adin and Meg wanted to help. She would blow with all her might and nothing would happen. Finally she handed it to me and said, "Mom, can you give me a hand with this." She talks like she is so much bigger than 3.
Brian asked Meg how her cough was, and she said "It's not going so well." Correct grammer and everything. That is thanks to Brian.
In response to my very detailed explanation of the events of Adin's birthday and how the day would go, Meg said "Hmmm, that's interesting." I don't know where she gets these sayings.
"Hurry, mommy, come look in the potty. I had a snake poopy." (This was all made up in her mind, Brian and I did nothing to provoke this. I was shocked.)
