Stories about Selah.

Selah makes us laugh. She is quite the character. Here she is on daddy's shoulders. No doubt her FAVOURITE place in the world. Every evening when daddy returns home from work she runs to him, turns around in front of him, and says, "On your head, daddy". And she does not like to take no for an answer.
Now the picture below is how we found Selah one night after we had put her to bed. Notice that she is not in her bed and that she does not have any pants on her legs. A couple of weeks ago when the night temps dropped into the 30s we pulled out the winter footie pajamas. Selah did not like wearing them. It took us a couple of nights but on the 3rd night when we woke to her crying at midnight (which she never does) because she was naked (she had also taken off her diaper), cold, and lying in a wet bed, out the door went the footies and were replaced by onesies under some sweats. But these too are taken off many a night and getting out of her bed has become the new trial.
Posted by PicasaI don't have a picture for the next couple of stories but I have to share.

Selah does not like mommy and daddy to show affection to each other in front of her. Whenever mommy and daddy hug or kiss, Selah will say, "No, no, no, NO!!!!!!" Then proceed to cross her arms across her chest and stare us down. She will run to us and say, "My mommy; My daddy." Oh, our Selah. She is a character.

One of her favourite ways to get a laugh is to ask you to come sit in a chair. Then right before you sit down, Selah jumps into the chair instead and begins laughing. She thinks she is so funny. And she is. At least mommy, daddy and Sofia think so.

And this picture is simply to show off her cuteness.

Oh, what a darling little girl! There are so many days I say a quiet prayer of thanks to God for our kids, and I know you feel the same way! What a blessing they are!
