Lah You

Claire got a timeout tonight.  We were enjoying a very nice dinner- ceaser salad, spaghetti with homemade turkey meatballs, garlic bread and a little Cabernet.  We got a new highchair yesterday for Docken Daycare and Claire had too much fun putting her feet onto the table while sitting in it.  We continuously told her not to and she continuously pushed the limits so she found herself (crying) in timeout. 

Once she was back at the table (tears dried and nose wiped), I watched her eat her carrots and spaghetti and my tears started falling.  It's my last night of maternity leave and I am sad.

Josh said, "Claire, Mommy is very sad.  Tell her you love her".

Claire said, "Mom-E! Lah you".

It was the first time she said it.  I'm going to miss this girl.

She will always "Lah" her mommy, even when she's 16...
