"You made my feelings cry!"

Hello all! I wanted to share a cute little thing about my sweet little girl, Amber. She is such a great kid for the most part.(she is a female and I believe some days she already has PMS!)


This is something that our family has gotten used to hearing but this morning I was talking to a friend and she heard Amber say it and she said that I HAD to blog about it. So here it goes Meladie!

Any time that the boys do anything to make Amber cry we will ask her what is wrong and she tells us,"He made my feelings cry!"

I think this is too cute. A few months ago she was trying to explain why she was crying after Jacob had done something to upset her and the only way she could make me understand was,"He made my feelings cry!"

So now we have all adopted this saying instead of "hurt my feelings" it is now "made my feelings cry".


She really is precious. But I was telling my husband this morning that she is so much like me when I was her age. Jacob and Nathan can be up early in the morning and be ok with it. And by early I mean before 7 am. Now Amber could sleep until 9 am if I let her. And the boys are pretty talkative when they first get up, it isn't a huge deal to get out of the bed. But Amber is a TOTALLY different story! Take this morning for instance, it was about 8 am and everyone had eaten breakfast except Amber. Why you ask? Because she was still asleep. So I go in to lovingly wake her up. I rub her back and talk really sweet to her and tell her she can have a Pop-Tart. So she begins to move a little and Jacob comes in being cheerful and jumping on the bed and Amber begins to growl and scream. So I had to get her back in line. Then I had to correct Jacob. So the way she is just like I was when I was her age is that I didn't like getting up out of the bed either. It would take me a good 30 minutes to even want to look at anyone much less wake up. And my sweet Amber is just like that.


So I wanted to share a little about my sweet angel. Here is her precious face. Isn't it amazing how a face this sweet could be so angry first thing in the morning! LOL

She is so cute, Michelle. She sounds exactly like Emily. I let her sleep in yesterday and she slept until 10:00 =)!

She's cute, Michelle. My 3rd is like that too. She is a bear if you wake her prematurely. ;-)
