I love parenting my little girl.....
When Sophia was a tiny baby she would hold onto my necklace as I fed her. Now she is constantly taking my necklaces off of me and wearing them. Since I have lots of long necklaces this tends to work. Well the other day she wanted to wear my short diamond circle necklace that Cyrus bought me when we found out I was pregnant with her. I thought about it and eventually came to the conclusion that she could hold onto it while we read books before naptime. At naptime she reluctantly surrendered it in an adult fashion (aka without tears). After her nap I asked her if she would like to wear a necklace. She said yes, ran into my room and stood next to the bureau with my jewelry box. I told her that she had her own jewelry box in her room with a few things we bought for her in the past few years. I pulled out a silver plumeria necklace with a rhinestone and she went nuts. She said “put fower necklace on me”. After I did, she looked at it and said “wow, it has a dimon in it”. For the rest of the day she wore the necklace and looked down at it often. Since then she has asked for a necklace every day. She knows she can not sleep or play at the playground in it, but she is happy with those rules.
