Such a character!

Here are just a few of the many reasons why

I love our Whitleigh Jean so much!


1) I walked into my bathroom a few nights ago and came across this sight (see picture below). When I asked her why on earth she had 6 pantyliners on her legs, she looked up at me through the tops of her eyes and said very pitifully, "Whitleigh's legs are bloke... and really hooting. Whitleigh's sad." I had to walk away.

2) She is near to impossible to negotiate with. I asked her to stand up straight and smile like a princess for me and this is what I got. After I got a bit more stern with her, she said, "Mommy, uh! Whitleigh's tee-to bites itch." Now, how can I argue with that?


3) She's a goof ball! What more can I say?!


4) She's always willing to lend a helping hand. Here she is getting ready to fill the watering can to feed the flowers. Unfortunately, being just two, she's more fascinated with the giant puddle she can make with the majority of the water on the cement and the flowers really don't get all that much to drink.



5) Miss Independent! Don't try and lend the helping hand back. Afterall, she is TWO and thinks she can handle most.  Therefore, her wardrobe suffers. This day she felt the need to show me how she could take herself to the potty all by herself. "No help Mommy, Whitleigh's a big girl."
