Cinderella

For the past week Kaiya has been running to the wall and pouting with her arms and head on the wall. It is usually when I tell her something that she doesn't like to hear. I thought it was funny, but didn't think to ask her about. So yesterday we were playing outside and she lost a quarter in the grass. She runs to the front door and leans her head and arms down on the step and fake sobs quietly. I started laughing and said, "What are you doing? Who taught you to do that?" And she very seriously replies, "Ella." And since we have watched this 329 times I remembered that after Cinderella's step-sisters tear her dress to pieces, she runs into the garden and cries on the garden bench until magically her fairy godmother appears. This is amazing to me for 2 reasons: 1) She is mimicking behavior from TV. 2) She answered my question about who taught her that correctly. Just another reminder that she's growing up! :)

I got her to do the Cinderella pose for me... Now look at the pictures and imagine her sobbing quietly to herself. Very cute. She usually runs to whatever she is going to do her sobbing on.
