I love you:)

The other morning while Esther and I were still in bed and all sleepy, I was telling her how much I love her and she tried to say it! First she said "hi". I was so excited, I kept saying "hi", then she kept saying "hi". Then I was saying "i love you" and she tried to say it! It was so sweet. I can't wait until she starts talking. I can see it is frustrating for her because she clearly understands everything and wants to communicate but just cant vocalize yet. Its just a matter of time before we start hearing words and sentences.. I cant wait!

Sharing:)

Esther Frayda has such a sweet and sensitive soul, k''h. The other day we were in Staples while Esther was organizing the candy shelf for the staff at Staples (she is quiet the organizer). This little boy next to us started crying. Well, Esther grabbed one of the candy bars and walked right up to the little boy holding out the candy to give him making her little noises as she does as she holds her head down looking up at him with these sweet innocent eyes. It was just a sweet gesture. She seems to be so sensitive and in tune to others feelings even at such a young age. 

Copy cat!

My sweet lil copy cat! Over Shabbos, I unfortunately wasn't feeling well. My stomach was bothering me and I was not saying anything and holding in my pain because I didn't want to alert my lil Esther Frayda. So, I was leaning over the kitchen chair and kind of swinging my leg around. Well Esther saw I was up to something.. she came over and grabbed onto the chair just like I was doing, put her head down (also like I was doing) and started swinging her leg around in the exact same manner I was doing. It was like a MINI me! She had me laughing so hard, I actually forgot my stomach pain for a few minutes. Oh, how much I love you!! my sweet baby
