This is Baby Eva. Baby Eva gets mad sometimes. Sometimes when Baby Eva gets mad, she can be quite naughty. Some days are worse than others, Tuesday was one of those days...
It started like any other day...
Upon waking, Baby Eva called for her Mummzie to come fetch her from bed, Mummzie did not come fast enough. Baby Eva got mad. Baby Eva smashed her BabeDoll's head against the crib.
Later, one of Baby Eva's toys mistreated her. Baby Eva got mad. Baby Eva mistreated the toy ... right across the room.
At noon, Baby Eva and her Mummzie went to play with friends. Buddy Noah loves Baby Eva very much. He ran in circles around the room because he loved her so. One of those circles ran him over Baby Eva's hand. Baby Eva got mad. Baby Eva charged Buddy Noah. Twice. Mummzie was very shocked at Baby Eva's behaviour! Who had taught her to headbutt??
At snacking time Baby Eva was displeased with Mummzie's offerings. Baby Eva decided she wanted her "kibble" gone and dispatched each bit to the floor. Mummzie told Baby Eva that this was a no-no. Baby Eva got mad. Baby Eva did not want her cereal. She dispatched them again from her tray to the floor. Mummzie reminded Baby Eva that this was a no-no and took the kibble away. "Baby Eva, would you like some toast instead?" Baby Eva was still mad. She looked her Mummzie in the eye and picked up a piece of imaginary kibble and, with added fury, flung it from her tray. Baby Eva was being very naughty indeed.
In desperation, Mummzie called her Mummzie. "Where has my sweet baby gone to?" she cried. "Welcome to Toddlerdom," her Mummzie laughed. "Don't worry, dear, there's grace there too."

Love it! The story I mean... not the sin. Praying for you all :-) As you do for me.
ReplyDeletewow...if your ever feeling like you need to be more sanctified...come have baby eva play with toddler jake.....oh the endless grace!!!!
ReplyDeleteWho couldn't love that face! It is her "mummzie's" face reincarnated, BTW! Along with the tendency toward "strong self expression" shall we say? I agree with Meghann's comment about endless grace in sanctification! (And you'll get a lot of laughs in the process---just try to muffle them when Miss Eva's watching!) Love my girlies!! Mimi
ReplyDeletebabe! I LOVE reading your blog and seeing what a beautiful mother you are...they coined the phrase hott momma after you! Guess what!? I'm going to be in Gaithersburg in 1 week! Our time there is jam packed but next saturday the 4th I have the afternoon free if you're not doing anything. I know it's last minute so I totally understand if it's not doable...I just can't wait to give you a big hug! For some reason I don't have a workin email for ya so if you could send me the right one that would be great! I love you!
