Awwww!

This morning, Ellie said about the sweetest thing I can remember.

I had just laid her breakfast out in front of her. She had a cartoon on, and I said "Is there anything else you need before I get in the shower?"

She looked at the tv, then at me, then at her breakfast, and replied "Just a little kiss from you."

She got what she wanted, and melted my heart in the process. Such a sweet girl.

She's mine

For as long as I can remember, I've laughed in my sleep. Not all the time. Not even regularly. However, I can remember occasionally waking myself up due to laughing so much/hard. It's weird, I'm sure. But it's the truth. Even EM has caught me doing it.

This morning, Ellie was sleeping while I was getting ready for work... and then I heard it over the monitor. A chuckle. Then a little more. Then silence. It was clear, at least to me, she was laughing in her sleep.

It is simply one more characteristic we share. Facial features, expressions, temperment, laughing in our sleep. One more bit of proof she's mine.
