Ellie and I are "transitioning" right now.  Meaning, we are driving each other nuts.  She is growing up and totally wants things her way these days.  I am trying to find a way to make us both happy, while still teaching her she doesn't always get what she wants.  Hard stuff.  Plus, she is moody!  Which makes me moody.  Whoever said 3 is harder than 2 was totally right.  We will get through it.  Right?
To try and have a litte fun, we went to the river today.  It was a beautiful day for it.



See that leaf falling?  I like to think that my mom is thinking of me when a leaf is falling.  She thinks of me A LOT this time of year!

loved your pictures and the thoughts of your mother :)
I've always thought 3 was harder than 2 also. Hang in there!! :)

What a great idea. Chickie and I sometimes drive each other nuts too. I've been trying this week to spend some of that quality time with her-being willing to read a book even when I'm not in the mood, cuddling as I put her down to bed, etc. She sometimes really has an attitude! And I don't want her independence to ruin our relationship. It can be hard!
