Mommy!!

I was in the bathroom upstairs getting ready for work when I heard a strong little voice call out " Mo-mmy!" several times. Finally my brain registered what it was, and I ran down the stairs to find Ella sitting at the bottom of the stairs calling out to me. I can't describe the feeling, really. Ella brings such joy into our lives.
She's a content and happy child. And these days she's on a roll... she's having fun exploring every corner of the house. Last night as I was making dinner, she found her way into the mudroom, checking out our shoes. That's my girl.
